This Directoire period, painted and gold leaf gilded tole jardinière set features a beautiful centerpiece with matching side urns. The French antique trio dates back to the 18th century and sports gorgeous details with gold figures standing in allegorical poses. The jardiniere’s central figure sits playing a lyre, attended by an angel in flight on either side. Large angels to her right and left carry the floral seat upon which she rests. The centerpiece’s handles feature detailed profiles as well, also seen at the right and left of each side urn. Final details rest on the aforementioned side urns as golden figures stand, draped in flowing cloth and holding offerings to the scene pictured on the centerpiece.
