Qty:

Great elegance and very fine workmanship for this two light wall sconce in gilded bronze in the Louis XVI style. Its antique gold finish enhances the refinement of its decoration, whose degree of precision is made possible by the use of a solid bronze fruit of the best alloys. Its fluted and slightly tapered body ends at the bottom with a bud surmounted by fine, delicately worked leaves. Its two arms in double volutes carrying candles reveal a remarkable quality of work through the engraved underlining of their curves. Two identical basins, fluted, flared and surmounted by a disc with a finely beaded chain, end there. The decoration on the top of the appliqué is original, consisting of a head of foliage. The quality of the execution is exceptional, as is the precision of the decorations. They benefit from the cumulative know-how of six generations of craftsmen working for the house of Lucien Gau, masters in the entirely manual realisation of these works.
Dimensions: Height: 32 cm, width: 26 cm, projection: 12 cm

Lucien Gau

Sublime classic style lighting, solid bronze and bohemian crystal

Founded in 1934, Lucien Gau is one of France's most prestigious lighting manufacturers. In particular, Lucien Gau designs and manufactures an exceptional range of chandeliers, sconces and candlesticks in the Dutch, Louis XIII, Louis XIV, Louis XV, Louis XVI, Directory, Empire and Restoration styles. The manufacture, of exceptional quality, is carried out entirely in France. The craftsmen employed by Lucien Gau work, finish, assemble and patinate solid bronze using the most traditional methods, inherited from a long tradition of excellence. The bronzes are cast in the traditional way: for each model, the craftsmen model the parts of a lamp, a reference copy. For each copy of this model, a sand mould is made into which the cast bronze is poured. The mould, which is broken when it is removed, is used only once. This process gives a unique finesse and allows great freedom of design. Once cooled and removed from the mould, each piece undergoes a long process of finishing: deburring, turning, chiseling fine ornamental motifs, polishing and patinating are all done by hand and require a unique know-how. The most commonly used patinas are old gold, matt tin, bright gold and antique. Lucien Gau's collections include luminaires of great elegance and balanced forms. Whether a masterful chandelier or a discreet appliqué, each model has the same manufacturing quality. Lucien Gau has illuminated many exceptional buildings, castles, ministries and palaces all over the world. Really Beautiful is proud to present such a collection of luminaires of exemplary design and quality.
