Antique French Provincial Cradle Carved Oak Baby Doll Bed Crib Planter c1840
About the Item
19th century French provincial carved oak baby doll crib planter drinks server.
~Direct from France~
~Lovingly carved family heirloom from the 1800s, this beautiful baby crib is carved on all sides, and has been modified for potential use as a planter~
~Both sides feature hand carved panels with large bouquets of stemmed, multi-bloom flowers (dandelions?), and a center medallion that was perhaps a family crest. Both ends also have the carved floral bouquets!~
~Scalloped upper edge to the trough~
~Interior supports have been added to hold the heavy metal planter towards the top~
~Excellent possibilities: without the liner, for pillows, decorative linens and baby décor; with liner inside, great for a planter, or even a ‘drinks’ serving piece at a party~
~I’m sure the carvings “tell a story” about the family and the newborn for whom this was created. Definitely a unique piece~
~c1840~

The Breton style is as distinctive as its special culture and easily recognizable due to its very ornate carvings. Historically, the local economy in Brittany was heavily dependent on fishing and maritime activities, so one often finds circles and ship's wheels as a common decorative motif in the Brittany Style of antique furniture. Often antique furniture in the Brittany Style was carved out of chestnut or oak, with a very dark finish. A hallmark feature of the Brittany Style of French Country Antique Furniture...Category
