Add timeless elegance to your interior or garden with this substantial 19th-century bronze jardinière. Weighing over 40 pounds and measuring 22 inches in diameter by 8.5 inches in height, this classical vessel showcases masterful craftsmanship in the neoclassical tradition.

The body features embossed gadroons (ribbed curved motifs) and a fluted, notched neck, while the upper rim is accented by a bold Greek key pattern. Two finely detailed lion-head handles, each clasping a solid ring, lend a regal presence, and the piece rests on four lion-claw feet that reinforce its stately posture and balance.

The dark, aged patina enhances the antique character, making this jardinière equally suited for indoor elegance or outdoor grandeur. Ideal as a centerpiece for orchids, it can hold 5 to 7 potted plants or serve as a luxurious wine or champagne chiller.
