19th Century Pair of Cassolettes in Marble and Gilt Bronze

About the Item

We present you with this set of exquisite cassolettes from the Napoleon III period. Crafted from Pyrenean marble, specifically the Bénou Breccia kind, and enhanced with gilded bronze embellishments representing acanthus leaves and grape motifs, these cassolettes are not highly decorative thanks to the ornate nature of the marble and its accompanying decor, but they also showcase superb craftsmanship and gold detailing. They would make a perfect choice for adorning a mantelpiece alongside a clock or positioning on a dresser on either side of a bust. They belong to the late 19th-century period.
