Cleveland Museum of Art

The Louis XVI Style Candle Bracket by the artist is gold-colored. The wall-mounted candle holder has a central stem with two curved arms extending from it, each ending in a candle cup. The central stem features two intertwined rope-like designs. There are decorative elements, including leaves and flowers, throughout the piece. A pinecone-shaped element is at the bottom of the central stem. The background is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. Two small round medallions are on either side of the center stem, one features a floral design. The top of the central stem has a small dish-like element with two handles. The candle cups are on short stems and have a ridged design. The overall design is ornate and symmetrical.
