Pair of bronze smoking companions, manner of Pierre Xavery. Dutch, 18th cen

A rare pair of bronze figural smoking companions in the manner of Pierre Xavery.

Each depicts a seated tavern figure, one cleans his pipe with his finger whilst the other clutches a jug of ale.

The barrels are lined in tin & each have a removable lid to store tobacco.

The black marble bases are hollowed to contain oil & wicks would originally have been threaded through the lamps into the base to serve as a lighter.

The black marble bases are sat upon their original ebonised wooden plinths.

Dutch, 18th century.

Each measures 22 x 18 x 14cm.

Condition is good aside from a missing chair leg to one of the figures & a handle to one of the oil lamps.
