Located in Wembley, GB

Antique French Gilt Bronze Casket – Dated 17 & 20 Août 1872, High-Relief Figural Work An exceptional and museum-worthy antique French gilt-bronze jewellery casket, richly adorned in high relief and inscribed “17 et 20 Août 1872”, offering both historical significance and outstanding artistic craftsmanship. This remarkable 19th-century piece exemplifies the finest traditions of French decorative arts, featuring intricately cast and chased panels depicting romantic pastoral and mythological scenes. Each side presents finely sculpted figures – nymphs, cherubs, musicians, and classical subjects set within lush landscapes and framed by elaborate foliate scrollwork and naturalistic ornamentation. The lid is masterfully composed with dynamic figural decoration, while the casket stands proudly on sculptural zoomorphic feet, enhancing its dramatic presence and luxurious character. The deep relief work, combined with a warm, aged gilt patina, creates exceptional depth and visual richness. The engraved date suggests a commemorative or presentation piece, adding a rare layer of provenance and desirability for collectors of French ormolu, Grand Tour objects, and fine 19th-century bronzes. This is not merely a decorative object but a statement piece of historical artistry, ideal for collectors, interior designers, or high-end decorative settings.

Antique and Vintage Decorative Objects for Sale: Find Vases, Bowls, Boxes and Clocks on 1stDibs

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.
