This Pair of French 19th century Louis XVI cassolettes feature a beautiful white marble and are adorned with magnificent bronze mounts. The details are abundant and include a bronze pineapple finial over leaves, finely chiseled garlands over which beautifully detailed rams’ heads rest, fruited vines, acanthus leaves, and ribbon work. The pieces are supported by three hoofed legs, incredibly detailed themselves, with even more bronze work at the base. The pair is an elegant combination of finely chiseled bronze and marble, and are poised to bring a stately French element to a new home.

Late 19th Century Belle Epoque Basket Chandelier
Item Number: 0801
This French Belle Epoque woven basket chandelier is made of bronze and dates back to the late 19th century. Uniquely, and impressively, outside of the porcelain flowers, the entirety of the piece is made of bronze, including the woven basket. The chandelier features a bow ribbon at top with three outreaching arms extending down towards the basket center. Bronze–stemmed vines with small porcelain flowers grow up these three supports, accompanied by bronze leaves. The three lights extend downward from the basket resembling the stamen of a flower.
