19th Century Patinated Bronze Tantalus

About the Item

This is an extremely fine neoclassical French ornamental cast bronze, brass, and glass liqueur set, circa 1840. This fabulous liqueur set is in the form of a finely patinated bronze sculpture of an elephant walking along and carrying a brass howdah with a large glass barrel on top and two fitted glasses to each side. The barrel is enameled with floral decoration and has a bronze tap from which to serve the whisky. The sculpture is raised on a brass oval plinth base that has a decorative shaped canted edge. Add a whimsical touch to your home or office with this striking antique bronze elephant drinks set.
