Price: 958.00 €

Qty:

This wall lamp in solid gilded bronze, decorated with two arms in double volutes, echoes the canons of the Louis XVI style with its patinated old gold decoration and its shape. The ornaments are perfectly symmetrical, as recommended by the Louis XVI style. Its decorative elements find their inspiration, on the one hand, in nature through the reproduction of acanthus leaves on the arms of the scrolls, the base of the basins and the central decoration, the flower buds which complete the wall lamp at its two ends and, on the other hand, in the resumption of ancient themes through geometric elements such as the square rings which fix the scrolls to the central body. The bowls and the bobeches supporting the candlesticks are fluted, as is the upper part of the wall lamp. This meticulous work of decoration is entirely handcrafted by the craftsmen of the Lucien Gau workshops, suppliers to all French historical monuments, the largest palaces in the world and government ministries.
Dimensions: Height: 32 cm, width: 25 cm and projection: 13 cm
Light source: two standard E14 screw bulbs, preferably frosted glass flame shape, to be purchased separately.

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.
