About this work

Tin candlestick. The square foot is scalloped in an acanthus shape at the bottom. On it stands a square base with an openwork frieze, with a bust in the center of each side amidst a rocaille ornament. The cylindrical stem has a molded band on the lower half. At the top the candlestick flares slightly and is decorated with molded bands.
