Late 19th/early 20th century, an opposing pair, each surmounted by a crane standing atop a turtle's back, a snake clutched in its raised foot, over five outswept arms each supporting a foliate-molded urn-form light, raised on a channeled floral and acanthus-wrapped standard above a parcel-gilt tripartite foliate base with panther-headed knees, on claw feet, raised overall on a gilt bronze-mounted tripartite beveled red marble plinth, each: 26.25'' H x 8.75'' Dia., est: $800/1200
Provenance: The Estate of Dr. Paul E. Keith III, Las Vegas, NV

Each in overall good condition, with general marks, scratches and scuffs commensurate with age. Some darkening and rubbed wear to gilt elements commensurate with age. One with a repair to base of crane's leg and repaired breaks to marble base. The other with an approximately .25'' loss to tip crane's beak and a break at base of crane's leg; crane attached but loose.
