Good condition.

This pedestal was made of bronze by Ferdinand Barbedienne (1810 – 1892) in the second half of the 19th century, from drawings by Louis Constant Sevin (1821 – 1888) one of the most famous ornamental designers of the Barbedienne house, famous foundry of the 19th century. He collaborated with the greatest manufacturers of his time such as Froment-Meurice or Denière and was regularly rewarded at World Fairs.

Their collaboration brings them to create here a bronze pedestal of which the tripod foot is adorned with beautiful panther's heads and of whiche the feet takes the shape of feline paws. The shelf also in bronze shows a very beautiful decor composed of a succession of palms and ancient motifs in rose. Le plateau également en bronze présente un très beau décor composé d'une succession de palmettes et de motifs antiquisants en rosace. We find similar ones on the foot.
