Charming antique Victorian to Edwardian era Black Forest hand carved candlestick or epergne stand pair with ibex, chamois or mountain goat figures and overhanging branches or foliage! A wonderful smaller pair of all original hand carved epergne stands, Swiss Black Forest works of art from the mid-late 1800s, Animalier period. The anatomical depiction on these is wonderful. Very easily converted into a pair of small boudoir or accent lamps. So simple to do, we've done it numerous times with pairs like these and just love the look and ambiance in Country French, English Manor, cabin or lodge decor. These would be perfect for that or leave as they are, add glass bobeche as candle holders on the fireplace mantel. Attractive lighter wood finish with wonderful visual & decorative appeal. Browse some while you're with us, we have a large collection of fabulous antique Black Forest treasures, sure to tempt. Thanks!
Very good for age and type. The tips of the hors and ears have visible chips, there are a few chips to the tips of the overhanging foliage including one full branch missing from the right piece. See images for measurements.
