Description from the seller

An unobtainable work of art: Imperial Centerpiece with Capodimonte Porcelain Putti

In the heart of Naples, the Capodimonte museums guard priceless treasures, among them wonders of Italian ceramic art. Among these shines the Imperial Centerpiece with Capodimonte porcelain putti, a piece that could now enrich your home, carrying with it the elegance of the 18th century.

Made by the historic Bourbon factory, this object embodies the delicacy and mastery of Neapolitan artisanal tradition.

With imposing dimensions of 44 x 24 x 22 cm, the centerpiece is adorned with a basket-weave work featuring intricate pierced motifs, where putti figures intertwine with leaves and tendrils.

These cheerful infant figures, symbols of love and innocence since ancient Rome, are depicted in playful poses, evoking a sense of joy and lightness.

Although representing a classic decorative model, the Imperial Centerpiece is not merely an ornament. It is designed to hold fruit or fresh flowers, transforming into a table triumph that catches the eye.

This charming artisanal creation is ideal for those who wish to bring a piece of history into their home, making every space unique and fascinating.
