A pair of silver-plated bronze candelabra, each featuring three arms and a central light, resting on a circular base decorated with radiating gadrooning. The tapered, vertically fluted shaft is accented by a ring adorned with a Greek-key frieze and a wide collar of acanthus leaves.

The central, baluster-shaped, fluted nozzle rises above three sinuous arms, which are richly chased with foliate motifs. These arms terminate in circular drip pans with beaded edges, topped by further fluted nozzles.

The ensemble displays an elegant, symmetrical composition—characteristic of the Neoclassical taste of the Louis XVI style—enhanced by the intricate chasing and the high quality of the silver-plated bronze mount. Shows signs of wear to the silver plating, consistent with age.
