Pair Of Colored Boulle Marquetry Planters – 19th Century Period

Pair of 19th century planters, executed in colored Boulle marquetry. Each piece rests on curved legs delicately decorated with brass fillets and meticulous inlays. The decoration, of great finesse, mixes floral motifs and arabesques in bright colors, contrasting harmoniously with the ebony and gilded brass ornaments. The richly chiseled gilded bronze mount features appliques in the form of mascarons and volutes, giving the whole a majestic and refined appearance. The interior, designed to accommodate plants or floral arrangements, is bordered by an elegant openwork brass gallery. These planters perfectly illustrate the know-how of 19th century cabinetmakers, in the tradition of the style of Charles Boulle, combining luxury, refinement and decorative virtuosity.
