AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Elegant crystal stand with porcelain and brass base
This refined stand with a lid represents a perfect union of various decorative arts. The upper part is made of high-quality cut crystal, characterized by a geometric diamond-point pattern and star motifs that create extraordinary plays of light and reflections. The matching lid is topped with a faceted crystal knob that facilitates handling.

The distinctive element is the precious base, composed of a finely crafted brass stem supporting the crystal body. The white porcelain foot is hand-decorated with floral relief applications (small roses in shades of pink and yellow) and gold finishes, all resting on an additional circular base in gold-colored metal that provides stability and visual importance to the object.

Technical Details and Conditions
Materials: polished crystal, hand-decorated porcelain, brass.

Decorative elements: porcelain flowers applied and gold profiles.

Style: Classical/Romantic.

Condition: The item is in excellent condition. The crystal is intact and free of chips; the delicate porcelain flowers are well preserved, and the brass base retains its original shine.

Excellent conditions as shown in the photo.
