Paris Porcelain Basket Vase, 19th Century

About the Item

An opulent and finely crafted 19th-century French centerpiece, this piece epitomizes the elegance and artistic sophistication of the Louis XVI revival period. The openwork basket is fashioned from porcelain, delicately hand-painted and adorned with rich gilding, supported by a neoclassical stem featuring an intricately sculpted group of three cherubs in bisque porcelain. The cherubs—representing playful innocence and love—are rendered with extraordinary detail, their flowing forms lending a sense of movement and grace. The piece rests on a rounded, black porcelain base with elegant gilded decoration and scalloped edges, adding dramatic contrast and visual weight to the composition. Perfect as a centerpiece or decorative object on a mantel or console, this work embodies the refined taste of 19th-century French decorative arts, seamlessly blending porcelain artistry with the sculptural beauty of gilt bronze.
