style Néo-Baroque aux têtes de bouc - Fin du XIXe siècle - Vase - Spelter

Magnificent and important ceremonial vase from the Historicism period (Napoleon III era / late 19th century), crafted in the purest Neo-Baroque style. Very heavy This decorative piece stands out for its great richness and the quality of its chased ornamentation. The body of the vase features a central cartouche with trellis motifs (floral lattices). It is flanked by two large handles in richly worked scrolls, at their bases adorned with magnificent and expressive goat heads with finely drawn horns. A relief bird delicately settles on the lower side of the vase, accenting the naturalism of the composition. In the art-regulated style, this vase is remarkable for its density; it indeed benefits from an antique interior lead lining, a goldsmithing technique previously used to give it the noble, prestigious weight of bronze. Dimensions: 32.5 cm × 18.5 cm × 9.5 cm Weight: 1.8 kilograms

Estimate:£253.53
