19th Century French Polished Brass Ceremonial Wine Harvest Hotte

About the Item

Hammered from the verso side, in a metalworking technique known as repousse, this polished brass wine harvest hotte has images that project, giving the ceremonial basket a subtle texture. The partial hood is adorned with a basket overflowing with fruit, while the main body depicts abundant cornucopias accompanying a large foliate rinceau. Continuous drapery swag hangs between the two sets of images, just beneath a lightly molded opening. A twisted rope encircles the bottom of the hotte, which is supported by an octagonal base embellished with raised roundels. Dating to the 1800s, this French wine harvest hotte would have been used as a decorative accessory for a vineyard or chateau wine room. It can also be used as an umbrella stand or for storing firekindling.

19th Century Highly Carved French Oak Sculpture of a Man Harvesting Wine Grapes

Located in Dallas, TX

This beautiful sculpture has been carved from solid French oak during the latter half of the 19th century. The style is that of Black Forest, with realistic depictions of branches, leaves, grapes, and more. Originally a French clock, most of the timing mechanisms have long been removed.

Our gatherer, who is clad in an overcoat and large brimmed hat, is carrying a hod (hotte in French) full of freshly picked grapes. A large wooden bucket...

Large Antique Wrought Iron and Bronze Double Sided Lectern from France, 19th C.

Located in Dallas, TX

Known as a lutrin in France, this double-sided lectern is highly scrolled and pierced, making a unique and beautiful dais. The imposing French lutrin is comprised of wrought iron with some bronze embellishments (finials and roundel joineries) and dates to the 1800s, although the double-sided platform was added more recently based on the varying patina and welded construction (the bottom is pinned). An amazing, banded arabesque of scrolls and counter curves emanate from an open roundel, forming the double-sided slant-top platform. The platform is designed to swivel on a rod that runs through it; a ball finial tops the rod, flanked by a pair of Vitruvian waves that form a majestic crest. There is an arbalete edge that extends off both sides of the platform, providing a stable base for holding music...
