About the Item
Antique French Pedestal Plant Stand Round Display Carved Brittany Baluster.
Direct from France, a tall and highly carved French pedestal/plant stand, with fabulous Brittany details!
The main feature here is the sold chestnut baluster with a full length, dimensionally carved Breton gentleman in period attire. Note the shape of the body, the face and details to the clothing.
This stand’s hand carved details are true to the Celtic roots of the Brittany region of France, with the hallmark feature of the Breton style, the symbolic use of men and women in traditional Celtic dress.
A carved beveled edge to the round top has a ring of dropped finials below; detailed carved grooving on the square base with demilune carvings on the corners.
Of course, the stand would be superb for plants, bronze display or to show off your favorite French cache pot, and certainly serve as a wonderful accent piece with other Brittany antiques!
Well built by craftsmen of the period, circa1900.
Measurements: 39” ht. x 15.75” x 16”. Round beveled edge top, 13.5”.
NOTE: All of our antiques are direct from Europe. I personally select each item for the quality, design and unique characteristics that you will always find in our distinctive inventory at Geaux Vintage Antiques. …” with all that, why ‘Geaux’ anywhere else?” …

- Antique French Carved Bonnetiere Armoire Cabinet Brittany Breton Ship SpindleLocated in Shreveport, LAAntique French Carved Bonnetiere Armoire Cabinet Brittany Breton Ship Spindle. Direct from France, a lovely antique French armoire or “bonnetiere” cabinet, with gorgeous hand carvings throughout. The slender, smaller size makes a “bonnetiere” highly sought after for today’s home, as they can easily be placed in a variety of locations. Of course, the term “bonnetiere” comes from these early 18th and 19th century cabinets that were used for the elaborate ladies’ bonnets and linens. NOTE: The style and design are true to the Celtic roots of the Brittany region of France, which was heavily dependent on fishing and maritime, so the hand carvings are noted for spindled ship’s wheels and symbolic use of men and women in traditional Celtic dress to represent their strong work ethic, piety, and the enjoyment of life. All these Breton carved features are present in this cabinet! The crown features a wide band of open “ships wheel” spindles with carvings to either side. The full-length door has three different carved panels with half circle “spindle” designs on the upper and lower portions. The center panel has corner spindles framing the round carved panel...Category
