About the Item

Hand-cut Baccarat crystal centerpiece mounted on chiseled gilt bronze serving as a bowl or fruit stand. This majestic piece features a large Baccarat crystal bowl topped with a long cornet vase (43 cm) which makes it spectacular. The base rests on four claw feet and consists of a domed half-sphere in cut crystal intersected by the foot of the bowl. This section is equally ornate as it consists of a very finely chiseled bronze structure supporting the rim of the basin, from which two large, scalloped handles adorned with interlacing foliage and a pendant representing a laurel crown extend. The chiseling and gilding of the bronze are particularly elegant in this piece. In the 19th century, such pieces were usually found on the beautiful tables of European aristocracy, serving as a ceremonial bowl or fruit stand. This opulent and refined centerpiece is an object that will stand out in your interior or at a reception. Height: 69 cm Diameter: 43 cm Base: 14 x 14 cm Height of the cornet vase: 44 cm
