"Orientalist Perfume Burner : "the Basket Of Flowers""
Orientalist incense burner : "The flower basket", patinated regulator on a molded peach blossom marble base 15.5 X 10 X 11 cm. Representing a young woman dressed in the oriental style holding a basket of flowers, the upper part of which is pierced with holes in order to let the fragrant fumes escape or to plant incense sticks in it. "In its own juice", the deposits attest to a long use. Circa 1890/1900. Well, that's it, a page is turned: after 11 years of occupation, we are leaving our official apartment in Biarritz while waiting to find one of our own, but the Galerie de Biarritz is of course continuing its activity. But Nature and I have a horror of emptiness, I let you imagine everything there was inside and the house where we group the move may be large, I will have to separate little by little of a certain number of objects, furniture and paintings… So, it is the case to say it, they are of an excellent origin! Do not hesitate to ask us for photos or additional information by email or phone. Other photos and many other objects in our stores in Pau and Biarritz and on our website: galerielhoste.com.
