AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Old Rectangular Copper Jardinière / Flower Box – Victorian Style. Large in size.
Important elongated rectangular jardinière (jardinière) made of solid copper. The piece stands out for its refined applications in contrasting metal (brass/bronze), featuring movable side handles in ring form suspended by imposing decorative relief masks in the shape of a lion’s head. It rests elegantly on four ornamental claw-foot feet.
Good overall condition aesthetically and structurally, preserving a natural ancient patina highly valued, with occasional age-related oxidations (verdigris inside and at the base) that give it character and authenticity.
Seller's Story
Antiques are my great passion; all the items I have on auction were found at antique fairs and antique shops mainly from the Lisbon area, but also from the rest of Portugal, a country with a centuries-old history and many fabulous pieces and objects from this long journey, which I present here for auction. Only pieces of good quality, distinctly original, and obviously beautiful. Guarantee of quality and great care in the shipping of the items. Thank you.
