| Description |
English: Each candlestick is composed of a round white column on a square plinth, and with a capital of four female heads with draped head-dresses in nature colors, under white and gold Ionic scrolls. Wreath of light green oak leaves bound with lavender-pink ribbons forms the base of column, and plinth has a border on its vertical face of flutings of the same color and gold band. Scrolls contain light green rosettes, with the same fluting motif in place of dentils. Gold edges and lines throughout. Separate candle insert. |
