FLOWER STAND, LOUIS XVI

carved, sculpted and gilt wood

This rare Louis XVI piece of furniture, which was once used as a flower stand in elegant, grand interiors, is characterized by the all-over exuberant phytomorphic decorations. The upper vessel, designed to hold flowers, is grafted onto a stem decorated with curved acanthus leaves, which appear above a procession of ovules, surrounded by three perimetral scrolls that connect it to the base.

The latter, molded and surmounted by a leafed cluster, rests on three legs with flying buttresses decorated, like the scrolls on the upper part, with Greek fret design.
