Pair of French Champlevé Enamel and Gilt Bronze Vases

About the Item

This magnificent pair of vases is wrought from gilt bronze and champlevé enamel in the distinctive, visually striking Renaissance Revival style. The cylindrical body of each vase is profusely adorned with champlevé enamel, the enamel fashioned into scrolling arabesques, flowers, and other geometrical motifs, all executed in pink, purple, and blue polychrome enamels. Each vase stands on a square gilt bronze base, inset with complementary enamel decorative motifs. Gilt bronze twin handles are mounted to the shoulder of each vase, each handle in the form of a female bust, while each vase culminates in a curvilinear neck, which widens into a flared lip.

  • Pair of French Louis XVI Period Gilt Bronze and Agate Vases
    By Martin Baffert
    Located in London, GB
    These truly exceptional and rare antique Louis XVI period vases have been sculpted from agate, a precious and highly sought-after stone. The vases are set on square agate bases with gilt bronze laurel wreath socles. The burgundy and claret agate bodies of the vases are mounted with gilt bronze acanthus leaf ornamentation, and twin lion masks joined by draped swags above. The lids of the vases are mounted with gilt bronze, surmounted by pine cone finials. The vases' design is attributed to the late 18th century, French clockmaker Martin Baffert. Baffert worked with a number of Parisian bronziers including Jean-Nicholas Fremont, Nicolas-Guillaume Jourdan and Francois-Robert Leguel, who assisted in the creation of his designs. This pair of vases is very similar to another pair of vases which Baffert designed, which form part of a clock garniture currently in the Rothschild collection at Waddesdon Manor. The Rothschild vases...
