This delightful indoor planter, dating from circa 1860, is crafted in the Napoleon III style. Made from two-tone marquetry wood, it features a delicate brass gallery and beautifully cast bronze mounts at each corner and around the base. It stands on four small turned wooden feet and is fitted with two finely chiselled bronze handles.

Whether placed on a chest of drawers, a console table, or used as a dining room centerpiece, it’s sure to draw the eye with its elegant proportions and refined detail.
