The arrangement gave the fireplace a balanced, formal look, and the candelabra provided light where the household gathered in the evening. Pairs like this one were made to play that role.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese two-light candelabra are in the Louis XVI style. Each stands on a round base decorated with a band of fluting and a ring of leaves, rising to a baluster stem wrapped in acanthus and topped with a fluted section. A beaded collar at the top supports two scrolled arms, each ending in a beaded drip pan and a fluted candle cup. In the centre, a small finial in the shape of a flame crowns the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe candelabra are in good condition. Together they weigh 2.6 kg, so they feel solid and stand steadily. A practical point: the candle cups measure 23 mm across inside, so they take standard taper candles, including the 7\/8-inch tapers common in the US. They are ideal on either side of a mantel clock or mirror, or set at each end of a dining table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short, this is a vintage pair of Louis XVI style two-light candelabra in gold-tone metal, with flame finials and acanthus stems. Each is 25 cm tall, and they are exactly as pictured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e DETAILS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: Height 25 cm (9.8 in); base diameter 12 cm (4.7 in); candle cup inner diameter 23 mm (just under 1 in) each.
