XVIIe. Brass Raffraichissoir Decorated With Gules Lions
The art of table and buffet decoration reached a peak under Louis XIV.
To refresh wines that required it, these tarred brass basins were used, adorned with lion gules with rings as grips and resting on fawn paws.
This dinanderie work is here done on a relatively small piece, for a single bottle.
Marked by the passage of time, but in fine, solid condition.
