Gold Gilt Objects For Sale on 1stDibs
At 1stDibs, there are several options of gold gilt objects available for sale. Each of these unique gold gilt objects was constructed with extraordinary care, often using metal, bronze and stone. There are 3700 antique and vintage gold gilt objects for sale at 1stDibs, while we also have 333 modern editions to choose from as well. Gold gilt objects have been made for many years, and versions that date back to the 18th Century alongside those produced as recently as the 21st Century. Gold gilt objects bearing Louis XVI or Empire hallmarks are very popular at 1stDibs. Gold gilt objects have been a part of the life’s work for many furniture makers, but those produced by Ferdinand Barbedienne, Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres and Line Vautrin are consistently popular.
How Much are Gold Gilt Objects?

Finding the Right Decorative Objects for You
Every time you move into a house or an apartment — or endeavor to refresh the home you’ve lived in for years — life for that space begins anew. The right home accent, be it the simple placement of a decorative bowl on a shelf or a ceramic vase for fresh flowers, can transform an area from drab to spectacular. But with so many materials and items to choose from, it’s easy to get lost in the process. The key to styling with antique and vintage decorative objects is to work toward making a happy home that best reflects your personal style.
Ceramics are a versatile addition to any home. If you’ve amassed an assortment of functional pottery over the years, think of your mugs and salad bowls as decorative objects, ideal for displaying in a glass cabinet. Vintage ceramic serveware can pop along white open shelving in your dining area, while large stoneware pitchers paired with woven baskets or quilts in an open cupboard can introduce a rustic farmhouse-style element to your den.
Translucent decorative boxes or bowls made of an acrylic plastic called Lucite — a game changer in furniture that’s easy to clean and lasts long — are modern accents that are neutral enough to dress up a coffee table or desktop without cluttering it. If you’re showcasing pieces from the past, a vintage jewelry box for displaying your treasures can spark conversation: Where is the jewelry box from? Is there a story behind it?
Abstract sculptures or an antique vessel for your home library can draw attention to your book collection and add narrative charm to the most appropriate of corners. There’s more than one way to style your bookcases, and decorative objects add a provocative dynamic. “I love magnifying glasses,” says Alex Assouline, global vice president of luxury publisher Assouline, of adding one’s cherished objects to a home library. “They are both useful and decorative. Objects really elevate libraries and can also make them more personal.”
To help with personalizing your space and truly making it your own, find an extraordinary collection of decorative objects on 1stDibs.
