Pair of Rare 18th c. French Porcelain Tole Topiaries
About the Item
These rare objets d’art feature intricately hand-cut and painted tole foliage, gracefully shaped into classical topiary forms. Adorning each piece are delicate porcelain flowers—each one individually crafted and applied by hand, showcasing the refined elegance and craftsmanship synonymous with the finest French decorative arts of the period.
The topiaries are mounted in their original, patinated urn bases, further enhancing their antique allure. A harmonious blend of naturalistic detail and romantic whimsy, these pieces were likely commissioned for a grand salon or conservatory and remain astonishingly well-preserved.
A true collector’s dream, this pair exemplifies the lavish taste and technical mastery of 18th-century France.
