FRENCH BRONZE & CRYSTAL EPERGNE
Circa 1920. Antique French bronze and crystal epergne. Rare pair, with bronze center bowls delightfully decorated in Classical motifs of Putti among leaves and vines.

The vases have been cemented into the bases some time in the past. Original patina and gilt finish with one bowl being slightly darker than the other. The crystal vases are in very fine original condition with no chips or cracks visible. Very good condition over-all. 14 1/4" high x 6 3/4" widest x 4" diameter base. Price $850.00 for the pair.
