Large and Unique 18th Century Painted Wooden Jardinière from Bruges
About the Item
This magnificent and tall wooden jardinière or planter is from a private chapel in a chateau near Bruges. It is in two pieces: the hexagonal jardinière and the tripod base. The planter is completely hand carved and painted, although it probably had a zinc liner in the upper portion at one time.
The ground color is a pale blue and the raised motifs are a light cream. The motifs include acanthus leaves, palmettes, C-and S-Scrolls, lion’s feet, flowers and ribbons. Each panel of the tripod pedestal base has different motifs. One of the sides depicts St. Peter, holding the keys to heaven. The other two sides depict trophies that are musical in nature. All this rests upon three large lion’s paw feet.
Beautiful with or without plantings, this tall and highly unusual jardinière will make a wonderful statement anywhere it is placed. It can also be used to house uplight fixtures, dried flowers, etc.

- 19th Century French Barbotine Jardiniere with Gros Relief FlowersLocated in Dallas, TXThe skill and knowledge that was needed to make this beautiful 19th century French barbotine jardiniere is significant. Each of the gros relief flowers was painstakingly formed and painted by hand. Barbotine products are a mixture of Kaolin clay and water and in the case of the attached flowers, they are manipulated into paper-thin fineness. Once the flowers were colored, they were affixed to the side of the jardiniere, glazed, and fired. Any miscalculation during the firing process would result in a restart, negating months of hard work. It is difficult to find an intact barbotine with gros relief flowers due to the fragility. The jardiniere has been painted using gradient colors, with black at the top and golden brown at the molded base. In between those hues is a mottled black and brown background that extends up to the curled volute handles. Blue, pink, yellow, and orange gros relief flowers with attached greenery have been applied over the speckled area. Our barbotine jardiniere with gros relief flowers can be used as originally intended, as a small indoor planter...Category
