A stunning and large scale true pair of French 19th century Renaissance st. ormolu and Rouge Griotte marble lamps. Each lamp is raised by a circular Rouge Griotte marble base with a mottled border and fine bottom ormolu band with fine ball feet. The socle shaped pedestal supports display elegant wrap around reeded bands below striking finely detailed palmettes and foliate designs. The bodies display fine reeded bases with beautiful richly chased scenes at each side. One side shows a beautiful maiden waving a shawl while sitting in a chariot drawn by lions being followed by a young boy holding an abundant basket of fruit. The other side depicts another beautiful maiden ridding an impressive dolphin while draped in a flowing fabric and playing a lyre with a charming cherub also ridding a dolphin at each side. Impressive sleek handles lead up each side with finely detailed bearded noblemen and striking foliate designs centering the beautiful elegantly curved fluted necks with top wrap around foliate bands.
