EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite pair of candelabra, created between 1760 and 1770 by the renowned Meissen Porcelain factory in Germany, showcases the exceptional craftsmanship and artistic flair of the 18th century. The candelabra, adorned with intricate enamel decorations, are dressed in the fashionable Bassetaille style, a popular trend during this period. The young women depicted are seated and clad in elegant gowns, their hats adorned with ribbons and flowers. The candelabra's green and purple color palette adds a touch of elegance and sophistication, while the close-up perspective highlights the meticulous details of the hand-painted enamel decoration. The candelabra's curved design and ornate scrollwork are reminiscent of the Rococo style, which was prevalent during this time. The Meissen Porcelain factory was renowned for its high-quality porcelain, which was often decorated with enamel and painted in the Dresden style. These candelabra are a testament to the factory's artistic excellence and its ability to create decorative objects that were both functional and aesthetically pleasing. This pair of candelabra is a valuable addition to any collection of 18th-century decorative arts, and their presence in a museum setting, such as the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, allows us to appreciate their historical significance and artistic merit.
