A pair of French Napoleon III Greek Revival gilt-bronze torchères, attributed to Ferdinand Barbedienne and possibly designed by Ferdinand Lenuain, each with anthemion and lion mask detail, fluted column and raised on an elaborate tripod base, each monopod terminating in paw feet and supporting a neoclassical urn-shaped oil lamp with cast figural detail, 45cm diameter 171cm high (4) Condition report: Urns possibly associated but both with the same gilding. One supporting anthemion bracket missing. Both appear to be lacking chains as there are eyelets surrounding the lion masks. Some marks, scratches and misshapen areas. General wear, tarnish and discolouration. The urn on the torchere locking the supporting bracket wobbles a little. Some slight wobble in the joints but generally solid and of heavy gauge.
