Item Description
A rare 18th-century Italian faience pair of candlesticks with striking lion supports. Each lion, with its distinctive expressive face, mane painted in yellow and black, and playful tongue, rests on a base adorned with green trees, combining folk charm with a vibrant interplay of colour and texture. The turned candlestick forms, highlighted with blue and decorated with religious and craft motifs, complete this sculptural and whimsical group. A joyful statement piece, this pair stands out for its originality, vernacular character, and distinctive presence.

- Glaze losses to the lower part of the lions, two losses to paws and tails, a restoration to one lion.
