Beautiful vintage French-style porcelain candlestick with an ornate gilt-metal mount and charming cherub/putto decoration.


The porcelain body features a lovely hand-painted pastoral scene depicting a romantic countryside landscape, surrounded by elaborate architectural and floral-style decoration. The upper section is decorated with a sweet winged cherub/putto figure.


The combination of white porcelain, painted scenery and aged gold-tone metal creates a beautiful French Rococo / Louis XV-inspired appearance.

Condition:


Pre-owned vintage condition with visible age and wear.


The gilt finish shows areas of wear, patina and loss consistent with age and use. There are also areas where the painted/gilt decoration has faded or worn. Please examine all photographs carefully for the exact condition.


I have not found a maker’s mark, so the exact manufacturer, age and country of manufacture are unknown. It is being offered as French-style, not represented as an authenticated French antique.
