This large 19th century Japanese porcelain centerpiece with 19th century French bronze d'ore mounts. This combination was classic to the period as the French would import the high quality porcelain and later add their own intricate gold leafed bronze elements. In the bronze d’ore here, we see a beautifully beaded rim, curving handles embellished with acanthus leaves, and a pierced base with ball-and-claw feet. The porcelain itself is beautifully detailed with countryside scenes filled with nature. The combination of strong French bronze with delicate 19th century Japanese craftsmanship is strikingly elegant.

This extremely fine 19th century Chinese Rose Medallion porcelain covered coupe is mounted with a 19th century bronze d'ore pierced rim, handles and a pierced pedestal base. The bronze d’ore is French and classic Louis XV. It exudes a beautiful impression of nature in its movement. In the 18th and 19th century the French had a strong affinity for export porcelain, and would add extraordinary bronze d’ore handles and bases to export porcelain bowls, to make the piece grander. This is a gorgeous example of the practice, as it combines exquisite porcelain and ornately detailed bronze d’ore.
