Bring timeless French elegance to your mantel, dining table, or library with this striking pair of antique three-light candelabras, each signed P.H. Mourey (Philippe Henri Mourey, 1840–1910), a celebrated French sculptor and designer known for richly ornamented decorative arts during the late Victorian era.
Dating to approximately 1880–1900, each candelabrum features an ornate silvered cast metal framework with flowing Rococo scrollwork, floral details, and grape cluster motifs. The elegant turquoise blue Sèvres-style porcelain urns are adorned with finely hand-painted cherub (putti) medallions, while additional porcelain panels embellish the architectural bases.
The original silvered finish has developed a beautiful timeworn patina that enhances their authentic antique character. Their scale and decorative presence make them ideal for display on a fireplace mantel, console table, or as part of a curated French or European-inspired interior.
Authentic signed examples of P.H. Mourey decorative metalwork are increasingly sought after for both traditional and eclectic interiors, offering a sophisticated blend of sculpture and functional design.

The original silvered finish exhibits expected patina, oxidation, and finish loss throughout, contributing to their authentic antique appearance. One candelabrum has a visible crack in the cast metal surrounding the stem at the base, one rear porcelain panel has damage, and one candle arm is slightly bent. The porcelain cherub medallions remain intact and display beautifully with only minor age-related wear. The pair remains structurally stable and presents exceptionally well from the front, making them ideal decorative display pieces. Please review all photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the description. less
