An antique 20 inch mother of pearl brass ormolu jardiniere circa 1870’s. Kingswood & ormolu mounts with original metal liner . It has beautiful mother of pearl decoration & is the ultimate jardiniere ! There is some wear to the liner & it has lost a ring handle to one end & there are some minor holes but this can be expected for a piece this old . Plus one little circle of mother of Pearl missing on the back & metal gilt banding loose on one end but nothing which distracts from its decorative qualities. It’s a very old piece so not perfect but still the king of jardinieres . These jardinires are very rare as most of them are passed down from generation to generation & most owners hardly ever part with them as they are so decorative & highly sought after . Lovely on a hall table or sideboard to make a true statement piece plus they look brilliant with nothing in them to bring that classic & timeless French style into your home . Please note the other antiques & solid bronzes snails are not part of the listing but they can be purchased separately on our Etsy site or from our shop in the Cotswolds . A Large Antique French Kingswood/Mother Of Pearl Brass Ormolu Jardiniere, Removable Metal Liner C1860 Lady Catherine Would Be Impressed
