Four Decorative Porcelain Wall Brackets of Satyr Form
About the Item
These wall brackets have been beautifully modelled and painted by hand. They take the form of satyrs, who were woodland gods in ancient Greek and Roman mythology. They are traditionally depicted with the upper body of a man and lower body of a horse or goat. The satyrs that decorate the wall brackets have entwined grey furry legs, nude male torsos, and grey bearded faces, with mischievous grinning expressions. They have their arms raised, holding colorful fruit swags. The satyrs are set against light blue and pink backdrops, composed of scrolled acanthus leaves. The tops of the brackets feature painted fluting, and they are edged with gilt bands. In their pastel color palette, and in their delicate, light-hearted classically-inspired ornament, these wall brackets may be described as Rococo in their style.
The wall brackets will make wonderful, colorful additions to a well-designed interior. They can be used to display fine works of decorative art, sculpture or plants, or they could be left unadorned and enjoyed as autonomous aesthetic works.

Located in London, GB
Ottoman Mother-of-Pearl and Ebony Inlaid Wall Bracket
Syrian, 19th Century
Height 103cm, width 39cm, depth 21cm
Inlaid with mother-of-pearl and ebony in intricate geometric and foliate parquetry patterns, this beautiful piece was made in Syria in the nineteenth century during the time of the Ottoman Empire. With a central latticed rectangular panel at the back of the central shelf, with canted corners, it is flanked on each side by pillars with isometric triangular shaped cresting. The upper section, like the lower part, features foliate rather than geometric designs, and the surmount with a crescent finial features a large central roundel enclosing a mother-of-pearl inlaid tughra.
All in all, the ebony and mother of pearl dance beautifully throughout various patterns and motifs, creating a fine decorative piece, and an excellent antique ware...

Pair of Meissen Style Porcelain and Ebonised Wood Mirrored Wall Brackets
By Dresden Porcelain
Located in London, GB
Pair of Meissen style porcelain and ebonised wood mirrored wall brackets
German, late 19th Century
Height 88cm, width 36/40cm, depth 19cm
This superb pair of wall brackets are a masterclass in the Meissen design style.
The mirror of each bracket is mounted on an ebonised wood backing, which is surrounded by a porcelain C-scroll surround encrusted with floral decoration. Featuring delicate scrolling motifs, the edge decoration includes both painted floral patterns and moulded floral assemblages, all in a vibrant colour scheme which stands out against the pure white porcelain base. Two expertly crafted birds perch at the corners of each bracket, carefully painted to mimic their real-life counterparts. The very top and very base of each bracket culminates in a playful putto, who represents one of the four seasons.
Below the mirrored section of each bracket is a semi-circular wooden top, which sits on top of a basket-shaped porcelain support. Surrounding this support is another porcelain edge, which is encrusted with a floral garland of bright green leaves and delicate blossoms.
