A PAIR OF FLAMBEAUX and their bobèches in silver, resting on a scalloped base with engraved doucine and adorned with three large argrafes applied as acanthus leaves.
The umbilicus is chased with leafy reserves, one of which features a medallion engraved with a coat of arms (erased), framed by shells in reserves separated by ovals. The baluster shaft is adorned with shells surmounted by spatulas alternating with fluting. The shoulder is underlined by three rocaille clasps, echoing the binet, which is embellished with ribbed foliage at the bottom and twisted canals at the top.
