Rare pair of gilded and burnished bronze candelabras depicting two winged victories holding a five-light candelabrum, resting on plinths enriched by a chiseled sphere.
The two candelabras come from an important Monegasque private collection and previously from a top-level Parisian antique gallery and subsequently, through acquisition during an antiques Biennial at the Lingotto in Turin (Federico Zeri present on the scientific committee), they passed through the Zabert Gallery in Turin, of which they retain the original paper sticker.
Presented at the time with an attribution to the well-known bronzier Pierre-Philippe Thomire (1751-1843), in my opinion they should be attributed to the Manfredini manufactory, of which, below, some historical notes extrapolated from public utility sites.
They measure 116 cm in total height and are in excellent condition, with the exception of the replacement of one of the two plugs to insert one of the two tips.
They show the wear and tear of time and can undoubtedly be placed in the first quarter of the 19th century.
