"Napoleon III Onyx And Gilt Bronze Pedestal, Circa 1880"
This exquisite French Napoleon III period pedestal stand from the late 19th century is a statement of refinement and craftsmanship. Designed with an octagonal onyx top, framed by an intricate gilt bronze gallery, this piece embodies the opulence and elegance characteristic of the era. The soft warm hues of the onyx create a striking contrast with the sleek black lacquered wood, making it a perfect accent piece for both traditional and contemporary interiors.

The stand is supported by four finely turned and fluted ebonized legs, adorned with delicate gilt bronze mounts, emphasizing its neoclassical inspiration. The legs are connected by a lower stretcher, also detailed with gilt bronze elements and an elegant finial at the center, adding to its sculptural appeal. The subtly curved feet lend the piece a graceful stance while ensuring stability.

Originally designed as a plant stand or display pedestal, this versatile piece can beautifully showcase a sculpture, clock, vase, or decorative object. Whether placed in an entryway, next to a fireplace, or as an accent piece in a luxurious salon, it brings a touch of historic grandeur of timeless sophistication.

Condition: Excellent antique condition with minor wear consistent with age and use. The gilding and lacquered finish remain beautifully preserved.

This rare and elegant pedestal stand is an ideal acquisition for collectors of fine 19th-century French furniture or those looking to enhance their interior with a touch of historic luxury.
