"English Style Silver Plated Bronze Centerpiece"
This sumptuous English-style centerpiece, probably from the Victorian period, combines the elegance of finely chiseled silver metal with the finesse of cut crystal. Its base richly decorated with raised garlands and sculpted lions symbolizes British aristocratic grandeur. A central column decorated with scrolls supports a large crystal bowl, while three side arms with refined curves carry smaller bowls, creating a harmonious balance. Intended to enhance the tables of noble homes, this object illustrates the know-how of 19th-century English goldsmiths.
