"Pair Of Louis XV Style Torches Around 1860"
Rare and beautiful pair of Louis XV style torches, very rococo model of exemplary quality of execution. Probably German model according to the Christie's auction house, on reflection I would see a slight variation of Meissonier. For a pair of identical candlesticks, refer to: The Christie's sale of November 26, 2005 in Paris “Former collection of Heli by Talleyrand Duc de Talleyrand, lot 310.
