An exquisite French 19th-century Louis XVI-style surtout de table

Charming cherubs, draped in flowing garments, grace each side, kneeling on onyx bases with floral gilt reserves, and holding the oblong-shaped patinated bronze bowl. Intricate foliate designs and a central cameo of a young woman adorn the bowl, complemented by a reticulated flanged top band and a smooth finished interior.
Two urn-shaped double-handled vases feature ormolu relief decoration depicting quivers, arrows, pan flutes, and vine branches with grape clusters. Atop bases adorned with roaring panther figurines and matching square onyx bases, they are further embellished with patinated flanged bronze sub-bases.
The original rubbed patina, gilt and touches of verdi gris enhance its allure, beauty, and timeless charm.
