Louis XVI wall light -

Lovely and extremely rare pair of Louis XVI style mirror wall lights in solid gilded bronze, the oval mirror set with pearls being the central element of the wall light. Old gold finish gives relief, shadows and light. Its lower part ends with an element of sculpted leaves that could serve as a handle. Illuminated by two lights carried by two volute arms, it gives off a beautiful impression of symmetry. The lights rest on flared bobeches, also in sculpted leaves, repeating the design of the bottom of the mirror. The fine pearl necklace that surrounds them also recalls that of the mirror with great grace and delicacy. The production of remarkable quality is carried out according to the most traditional methods, in France, in the workshops of the Lucien GAU house. Dimensions: Height: 34, width: 24 cm, overhang: 14 cm Light source: two standard E14 screw bulbs, preferably frosted flame type. The LD marking on the back is difficult to read but is a sign of Lucien Gau.
