Fabulous Gilt Bronze Elephant Candelabra Centrepiece

This is a delightful gilt bronze table centrepiece dating from around 1870. The trio of good quality Indian elephants are very well modelled and stand on a dramatic gilt bronze base with central gilt bronze candlestick holder. Each elephant has a Houdah style candle sconce to their backs also in contrasting gilded bronze. These are a really charming centrepiece, very unique and of excellent quality from the height of the British Raj. The Centrepiece measures 20cm in diameter and is 10cm in height.
