AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Copper Boot-shaped Cavalier Umbrella Stand – Repoussé Work – Early 20th Century

Elegant and scenographic antique umbrella stand entirely crafted from copper sheet, expertly handmade. The object reproduces with striking realism a Renaissance-era Cavalier boot (Mousquetaire style), a classic European furnishing accessory from the first half of the 1900s.

The entire boot body features refined repoussé and chasing work, visible in the raised ornaments and along the upper edge’s punch markings.

Notable elements: The front bow detail in thin copper sheet, applied by passing through authentic holes in the shank, and the star-studded spur applied to the heel, distinctive signs of high-quality artisanal craftsmanship.

Stability: The sole is equipped with its original cementitious ballast, an era-appropriate technique essential to ensure perfect balance of the piece when hosting umbrellas or canes.

Conditions:
The object is in good condition, with a beautiful natural patina that attests to its age.
A slight physiological opening of the sole’s edge is noted, allowing a glimpse of the internal filling material (a typical feature that confirms originality and construction technique).
No major structural dents are present.
A light and natural crumbling of the internal cement filling is noted, typical of materials of the period. This does not affect the object’s stability, which remains solid and perfectly balanced.

Height: 60 cm
Base length: about 35 cm
Width: about 15 cm
Weight: 3.5 kg

The item will be shipped protected by ample bubble wrap and polystyrene and sent in a sturdy cardboard box.
