The pair of six-branched candelabra each features a gilded bronze cupid, seated on a mound and holding the starting point of a bouquet of flowing arms decorated with scrollwork and foliage. The sconces are adorned with acanthus leaves. They rest on fluted white marble columns encircled by garlands of gilded bronze flowers, ending in quadrangular bases with cut corners.
