"Napoleon III Inlaid Planter And Gilt Bronzes"
Elegant and very decorative planter on all sides, from the Napoleon III period. This planter still has its tray (known as a cap), unfortunately very often lost because it is removable to reveal the zing flower box. This stopper embedded in a gallery of gilded bronze is decorated with a very beautiful marquetry of Louis XVI musical instruments, with multiple species of wood, "elm burl, sicamore, boxwood, mahogany, pear, cherry", on curling background in rosewood and amaranth fillet. Perimeter of this planter also decorated with floral marquetry. Trim of gilded bronzes of very beautiful invoice on the whole of this piece of furniture which is of a very high quality of execution. Perfect condition and refinished with a buffer.
