These intricately-carved torchères derive from a Louis XIV Grand Gairidon pattern designed by Daniel Marot (1661-1752), architect to William III, for the King's apartment at Hampton Court Palace. This form of guéridon was later popularised by designs by Marot's in his Nouveau Livre d'Orfèvrerie (T. Murdoch, Jean, René and Thomas Pelletier, a Huguenot family of carvers and gilders in England 1782-1826, Part I, Burlington Magazine, Nov.1997, p.733, fig.3). Further related examples sold at auction include a torchère sold at Christie's, Monaco, 19 June 1999, lot 45 (FF138,000 with premium), and a pair sold, Christie's, London, 11 June 1998, lot 81.
