This single candle holder features rich sculptural decoration. The base is sturdy, with scrolls and stylized leaves. The stem is adorned with two cherubs embracing and holding a branch, from which bunches of grapes and vine leaves hang. These plant elements are often gilded or contrast with the dark patina of the rest of the sculpture, creating a two-tone effect. The candle holder at the top is surrounded by leaves that echo the grape motif. The whole is an example of decorative art that evokes a lively and pastoral atmosphere, with a taste typical of Baroque and Rococo styles, but reinterpreted in a later period. The meticulous attention to detail and the contrasting finishes contribute to making this piece a visually striking decorative object.
