Pair of ormolu torches in the taste of Jean-Démosthène Dugourc, the shaft with figures of vestals in caryatids surmounted by a cassolette with lion's heads, resting on a leafy base with a frieze of pearls.
Louis XVI style, 19th century.
Height. 32,5 cm
We find the same type of torch on a drawing by Jean-Démosthène Dugourc, around 1790, kept in the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris (CD 2703).
