拍品专文


This pair of candelabra was possibly executed by Alexis Decaix (d. 1811) of 15 Rupert Street, the French bronzier and modeller, who served as the Prince of Wales’ bronze-founder from at least June 1791. In a bill dated 5 January 1801 and issued to the Prince, Decaix describes himself as a ‘bronze and ormolu manufacturer’. Decaix was inspired by the designs of Thomas Hope, who praised his craftsmanship, and is, furthermore, known to have worked for Henry Holland (the Prince of Wales’ architect at Carlton House).
