Antique planter on its oval centerpiece, rockeries

Large antique French jardinière in bronze batine, typical Louis XVI style with numerous floral details and rocaille decor. Accompanied by its mirrored tray, a centerpiece, above all. Made during the Napoleon III period, 19th century. Found in a castle in the south of France. Both sides of the pot have the same floral motif in relief with acanthus leaves, curls and scrolls, roses, etc. The handles are also beautiful, the feet are well carved; the more you look, the more detail you see on this jardinière. The bottom also has a lovely design. People used this type of jardinière for potpourri, dried flowers, and/or plants. Much prettier in real life than in the photos! It will bring a typically French cottage chic touch to your home. Approximate dimensions: Maximum length - 48 cm / 19 in. Height - 20 cm / 8 in. Maximum width - 14 cm / 5.5 in.
