Pair Of Crackled Porcelain And Gilt Bronze Cassolettes — Wong Lee 1895

Pair of crackled porcelain cassolettes, decorated in underglaze blue and mounted in finely chased gilt bronze. The vases bear the “WL 1895” Wong Lee hallmark, ensuring their authenticity. These refined pieces perfectly embody the 20th-century taste for the Sino-European aesthetic, combining the delicacy of porcelain with the rich decorative artistry of French bronze mounts.
Each cassolette features motifs inspired by French art, adorned with flowers, garlands, butterflies, and cherubs. The removable lids are topped with sculpted bud-shaped finials, while the gilt bronze quadripod bases are decorated with claw feet reminiscent of the Empire style.
These decorative pieces are perfectly suited to both classic and eclectic interiors, bringing a touch of elegance, refinement, and historical charm to any traditional or contemporary setting.
