Vintage Home is pleased to present this magnificent pair of Pierre-Philippe Thomire (1751-1843) Bronze and Ormolu Winged Nike Victory Candelabras from the Early 19th Century. Thomire was a Parisian who retired in 1823 after a career of some of the finest expression of the Empire style, unparalleled quality of his castings and his gilt bronze works. He was favored by the Imperial Court including Louis XVI, Napoleon, Louis XVIII, Charles X and European Aristocracy far and wide. He was also commissioned for pieces at the Louvre, Versailles and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC has several of his pieces in their collection. This pair of Gilded Ormolu and Bronze feature two Nike winged Greek Goddesses of Victory. Nike were youthful winged women who rewarded winners of war and athletic games.
