French Gilded Bronze Rooster Vide-Poche on Basket Base

About the Item

French Gilded Bronze Rooster Vide-Poche on Basket Base This charming French gilded bronze vide-poche features a proud rooster standing majestically atop a woven basket-style dish, masterfully cast with intricate detailing and a warm gold patina. The finely rendered rooster—symbolic of vigilance and the French spirit—is accented with subtle green oxidation in the recessed areas, adding depth and vintage character to the piece. Originally designed as a catchall or ashtray, this decorative object blends functionality with sculptural elegance, making it ideal for use as an entryway tray, desk accessory, or collectible accent. Likely dating from the early to mid-20th century, it exemplifies classic French decorative craftsmanship.
