About the Item

Here is a stunning pair of finely chiseled, bronze candlesticks from the mid-19th century. Each candlestick features ram's heads and grape clusters on the binet, while the shaft is adorned with leafy patterns and vines. The base is supported by three panthers, resting on balls, adding a touch of elegance and solidity to the piece. These candlesticks are signed by Christophe Fratin, a renowned 19th-century animal sculptor whose work was widely recognized during his time. This pair of candlesticks is an excellent example of 19th-century decorative art, combining intricate chisel work and rich materials for a result that is both understated and majestic. Christophe Fratin, a celebrated animal sculptor, exhibited at the Paris Salon from 1831 to 1842 and from 1850 to 1862, as well as at the Great Exhibition in London in 1851. His masterpiece "Eagles and Prey" has been on display in Central Park, New York, since 1863. His works can be found in prestigious locations such as the Château de Dampierre, the castles of Sans-Souci and Babelsberg in Germany, the Saint Petersburg park, and the Visconti Courtyard at the Louvre. A similar model is reproduced on page 23, number 15, in Michel Poletti and Alain Richarme’s book "Fratin," published in Paris in 2000. Fratin collaborated with Alfred Daubrée, a sculptor and bronze editor born in Nancy in 1817.
