Exceptionally executed design, this 20th century masterpiece features a detachable small shield cartouche shaped shallow bowl basin top, over a sturdy architectural square capital topped turned baluster-form fluted column pedestal surrounded with intricate climbing vines of ivy, a whimsical pair of mice, and large butterfly, rising on a heavy conforming cartouche shaped naturalistic base, adorned with realistic rendering of a frog, snail, and decorative beds of various flowers and foliate carvings in relief, featuring a large scrolled plaque, partially legible, reading "may thy find joy..." The top of the stand signed/impressed with two hard to decipher symbols and dated 1983.
