AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A beautiful mid-century French copper cachepot (planter/jardinière) featuring a traditional dual-texture design. The lower half showcases a stunning hand-hammered, dimpled honeycomb finish, while the upper rim is styled with clean, horizontal ribbed lines.
This piece was masterfully crafted in Villedieu-les-Poêles, Normandy—a historic French town celebrated since the Middle Ages for its world-class copper craftsmanship. The bottom bears the authentic stamped maker's mark: "MARQUE DÉPOSÉE - GARANTI VILLEDIEU - FRANCE" encircling a traditional knight's helmet emblem, alongside the stamped size number "3".
• Origin: Villedieu-les-Poêles, France
• Material: Solid Copper
• Dimensions: 25 cm x 25 cm x 19 cm
Condition:
Good vintage condition with a beautiful exterior warm copper patina. The interior shows prominent, natural verdigris (green oxidized copper) build-up from previous use as a plant holder, which gives it authentic antique character. There are minor scratches, small oxidation marks, and signs of age as expected with authentic vintage copperware. No major dents.
