Pair of candelabra, Candelabrum with three arms, decorated with acanthus leaves, The candelabra consist of a candlestick, round in cross-section, and an attachment with three arms. The foot rests on the straight-walled base. An ojive profile adorned with acanthus leaves and above it a sphere profile adorned with fasces surrounded by a flat plate, on which eight volumes adorned with acanthus leaves are arranged radially. They wear a hollowly curved rosette made of acanthus leaves, which is crowned by a smooth band. The columnar trunk rises above it, with a convex arched base, a fluted shaft and a Corinthian capital, which serves as a candleholder. The top piece, which consists of three S-shaped, fluted arms, fits from a core made up of different leaf wreaths with a crown in the shape of the heart of the acanthus plant. Leaf leaves also swing from this core, bending along the top and bottom of the first part of the arms. The arms each end again in superimposed wreaths of acanthus leaves, above which the candle holder made up of the same leaves rises. A few leaves of the various leaf wreaths have been renewed. A B and G are engraved on the underside of the bottom of A, a C on the underside of the bottom of B, acanthus, ornament, column, pillar, architecture, Johannes Schiotling, Amsterdam, 1772, silver (metal), h cm × w cm d cm w 2326 gr
