Vintage Copper Planter / Jardinière with Brass Lion Head Mounts and Swing Handle
Description
This is an elegant vintage jardinière (planter) crafted from warm-toned copper, featuring classic neoclassical design elements. A beautiful decorative piece that combines functionality with a timeless rustic aesthetic.
Design & Features
Body: Hand-shaped copper with a gracefully flared "scalloped" rim and an oval silhouette.
Ornaments: The vessel is adorned with two detailed brass lion head masks on either side, which serve as mounts for the handle.
Handle: A sturdy, movable swing handle made of solid brass.
Patina: The piece retains its original aged patina, showing authentic character and oxidation (verdigris) inside, which confirms its vintage nature.
Dimensions
Height: 15 cm
Top Opening: 21 x 12 cm
The item is in good vintage condition with signs of age and use consistent with its history:
Stability: Please note that the oval base is not perfectly flat, causing the planter to wobble slightly when placed on a level surface. This is typical for hand-assembled copperware of this period.
Surface: There are visible solder lines at the base and minor surface marks/spots (see photos), adding to its authentic vintage charm.
