Table In Gilt Bronze And Porcelain De Sèvres, Louis XVI Style

This sumptuous pedestal is a remarkable example of the Louis XVI style, combining the richness of gilt bronze with the finesse of hand-painted porcelain.
The circular celestial blue porcelain top is adorned with finely painted medallions of royal portraits, centred around a male figure in ceremonial dress, surrounded by eight female figures. The set is embellished with delicately applied gold motifs.
The gilt bronze frame features a finely chiseled frieze, adding a touch of elegance and luxury. The tripod base in gilded bronze, of great visual lightness, adopts neoclassical lines inspired by antiquity, resting on a carefully crafted triangular base.
An exceptional decorative piece, this table-top is a testament to the excellence of 19th century French decorative arts and the tradition of ceremonial furniture for aristocratic interiors.
