A Superb Pair of 1950s Italian Carved Cherub Torchières in Antique White Finish
This magnificent pair of mid-century Italian torchières presents an enchanting blend of Baroque revival elegance and 1950s craftsmanship. Each sculptural lamp features a beautifully carved putto—also known as a cherub—poised in a graceful, twisting stance and holding aloft a multi-arm candelabra-style light fixture. Finished in an antique white patina with soft, hand-rubbed aging, these tall torchières embody the romantic spirit and classical artistry for which Italian decorative arts are celebrated.
Standing on intricately molded pedestal bases with volute scrollwork and acanthus leaf carving, the figures exhibit exceptional sculptural detail: flowing drapery, delicately modeled features, and expressive movement that recalls the grand decorative traditions of the 18th century. The gilt-accented metal candelabra tops add a warm contrast, bringing an added note of luxury while enhancing the vertical silhouette.
Crafted in Italy during the 1950s, this pair offers the perfect balance of theatrical presence and refined neoclassical charm. Their impressive scale makes them ideal statement pieces for entry halls, formal living rooms, grand staircases, boutique hotels, or luxury retail interiors. Whether incorporated into a traditional European décor scheme or used as dramatic focal points in an eclectic or Hollywood Regency setting, these torchières have the presence to elevate any environment.
