Gilt bronze jardinière with hardstone fruits

Offered by: Mayfair Gallery

Description
Gilt bronze jardinière with hardstone fruits
French, Early 20th Century
Height 15cm, width 57cm, depth 26cm

The jardinière is wonderfully cast from gilt bronze and filled with a selection of polychrome hardstone fruits.

The body of the jardinière or planter is covered with motifs inspired by the natural world, for example, flowers. A pair of handles allows for the easy transportation of the piece and adds a further decorative element to the antique. Each one is of acanthus leaf shape. A removable metal liner is placed inside the jardinière.

The planter is filled with a magnificent collection of fruits. For example, grapes, apples, and pears are realistically carved, and the natural colouring of the hardstones adds to the life-like appearance of the pieces.

Consisting of numerous wonderful objects executed to the highest standard, the jardinière with fruit ornamentation would make a superb statement piece in one’s space.
