A Handsome pair of German Grand Tour Candlestands.

Each of the two light candles stands supporting a bust, 

One of Mycenaean Spartan King Menelaus, husband of Helen of Troy and a central figure in the Trojan Wars. After the antique marble original in the Vatican Museum in Rome which is sometimes referenced as a bust of Ajax. 

The other of Lucius Verus (103 – 169 AD) was co-emperor of the ancient Roman Empire alongside Marcus Aurelius, and he reigned from 61 until his death in 169 AD.  He was the adopted son of the legendary emperor Hadrian and was thus a member of the Nerva-Antonine dynasty from 96 to 192 AD, and which included, in order, Emperor Nerva, Hadrian, Antonius Pius, Lucius Verus, Marcus Aurelius and Commodus.

On circular black marble stands.

Attributed to F. L. Vombach Offenbach, Frankfurt, Germany.
