"Pair Of Medici Vases In Patinated And Gilded Bronze Empire Period"
Beautiful pair of Medici vases in patinated and gilded bronze from the Empire period. On a quadrangular base decorated with gardening attributes in a wreath of laurels and a frieze of lotus leaves, rest the vases embellished with two handles depicting a head of Neptune flanked by shells surmounted by two dolphins facing each other and forming Plug. This unusual model, very finely chiseled, is in its original gilding. Parisian work from the beginning of the 19th century
