Pair of Antique French Decorative Bronze Pitchers

19th century
Description

A gorgeous pair of antique French solid bronze pitchers. They were made in France, and date from around the 1890-1900 period.

They are of stunning quality, and are purely decorative as there is no opening at the top to store anything inside. They could possibly be converted to lamps, however they are beautiful decorative items as they are.

The condition is excellent for their age, with only some minor surface wear and a wonderful patina.

Width – 5 inches , 13 cm

Depth – 4 inches , 10 cm

Height – 16 inches , 41 cm

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Highly popular during the nineteenth century in France, decorative bronze ewers were crafted as ornamental garnitures inspired by Classical and Renaissance metalwork, frequently incorporating sculpted putti figures and mythological themes.

These objects were cast in bronze using lost-wax or sand-casting techniques, featuring dark patinated finishes contrasted with gilded bronze accents, known as ormolu, applied to handles, bases, and rims.

Authentic nineteenth-century examples display fine hand-chased detailing on figures and handles, weight appropriate for solid cast metal, and gradual wear or mild oxidisation to the original gilding and patina.

Position them symmetrically on a fireplace mantelpiece, sideboard, or console table to add classical structure, tactile bronze contrast, and warm metallic accents to contemporary or traditional spaces.

Dust regularly using a soft, dry lint-free cloth or soft-bristled brush, avoiding chemical polishers, water, or abrasive cleaners that can strip original gilding or disturb aged patination.
