Pair of antique Royal military figural candlesticks in the form a drummer and rifleman respectively. Made Germany, possibly by Herend.<BR>Measure 12 1/2inches high each.<BR>Each soldier stands on a white, antique-style pillar moulded and gilded to look Classic, with an N in a green wreath of laurels - possibly for Napoleon? The drummer marches forward as he beats a tatto; the rifleman strides forward. Both have large, German military moustaches and the features on their faces are very well modelled. Backpacks, epaulettes, garlanded hats also well modelled and subtlely coloured.<BR>The candle would be placed in the hat of the soldier.<BR>Underneath each pillar has a variety of embossed and engraved marks: A crown and shield within a laurel wreath, enclosed in a circle, very likely the mark of Herend. Incised letters and numbers. <BR>Very good condition.
