The ornate … more This exquisite gold toned filigree ormolu epergne is a masterful blend of intricate timeless craftsmanship and luxurious materials.
The ornate filigree ormolu base features a scrolled, perforated star-shaped footed pedestal topped with a circular cream-colored marble platform that serves as a foundation for a charming figurine of three cherubs, playfully depicted standing back-to-back, holding hands in a circle.
Suspended above the cherubs is a lavish crystal bowl, which serves as the focal point of the epergne. The bowl is hand-cut with a delicate cross-pattern, featuring an undulating lip. A cascade of two-tiered crystal prisms dangles from the rim of the bowl. The hexagonal faceted upper prism and the much larger, tear-shaped faceted crystal prism both shimmer with a kaleidoscope of light.
Within the crystal bowl, a brass column rises to support an ornate, filigree ormolu winged bud vase holder. This holder, as intricate as the rest of the design, cradles two delicate crystal bud vases, their pinched necks and ruffled rims adding a touch of softness and refinement to the overall structure.
The interplay of brass, crystal, and marble, combined with the gilded elegance of the ormolu, creates a rich and harmonious contrast of textures and colors. This epergne is not only a functional display for flowers or fruit but also serves as a sculptural centerpiece that infuses any space with opulence and sophistication. Its intricate details, varied materials, and balanced design make it a versatile addition to both classical and contemporary interiors. less
