An exceptional 17th-century Dutch Baroque brass jardinière (cachepot), finely hand-hammered and richly detailed with a decorative banded lower register enclosing a stylized native floral motif. The form and ornamentation reflect the opulence and craftsmanship characteristic of Baroque-era metalwork in the Netherlands.
The warm brass surface has developed a deep, nuanced patina over centuries, enhancing the sculptural quality and historic presence of the piece. Compact yet visually striking, it works beautifully as a jardinière, cachepot, wine cooler, or decorative accent, seamlessly bridging antique character with modern interiors.
Originally fitted with a glass liner (now missing), the vessel remains structurally sound and highly versatile. Its age, surface variation, and hand-worked irregularities contribute to its authenticity and desirability among collectors of early European metalwork, Dutch antiques, and Baroque decorative arts.
Condition:
Very good antique condition consistent with age. Original glass liner is missing. Surface wear, patina variation, and minor irregularities are inherent to hand-hammered brass of this period and enhance the piece’s historical character.
Dimensions:
6ʺ W × 6ʺ D × 7.5ʺ H
A rare and evocative object—equally suited to a curated antique collection or as a refined focal point within a contemporary space.
