Description from the seller
Antique triptych in gilded bronze with hand-painted Sèvres plaques
Elegant French triptych in mercury-gilded bronze, enriched with refined porcelain plaques from Sèvres, finely hand-painted, dating from the Napoleon III era (Second Empire, mid-19th century).
The composition, of great charm and refinement, consists of a central clock and a pair of decorative candelabra.
The clock features a sumptuous upper sculpture depicting a musician cherub, modeled with particular attention to detail. The case, richly decorated, houses at its center the enamel dial with Roman and Arabic numerals, surrounded by Sèvres plaques with romantic and floral scenes. The shaped base, crafted with vegetal motifs and curved supports, completes the ensemble with a typically French taste of the period.
The two candelabra, also in gilded bronze, stand out for their branch-like structure with floral designs and for the painted porcelain plaques that echo the decoration of the clock, making the triptych perfectly harmonious and scenographic.
A decorative set of high prestige, ideal for important living rooms, fireplaces, consoles, or refined environments.
