Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 1880s:
Cast classical motifs on the tiered base: late 19th-century French decorative taste.
Acanthus leaf mount: secures the tapered glass stem in the period manner.
Even darkening in the low-relief casting: long natural oxidisation of the metal.
Scalloped rim on the fluted crystal trumpet: typical late Victorian table glass.

This is an independent date report produced by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. The process uses the photographs shown on this page. The system is never told the date the dealer has declared. This report shows that the two dates corroborate.

This late 19th-century French crystal centrepiece vase features a clear trumpet-shaped body with flutes rising from the narrow base to a wide scalloped edge at the top. The piece sits in a decorative cast gilt bronze base comprising three tiers with classical motifs, supporting an acanthus leaf sheath that firmly holds the lower section of the glass vessel. The gilt bronze finish shows a warm gold tone contrasting against the transparent crystal. Standing 30 cm high, 14 cm wide and 14 cm deep, this item provides a decorative accent suitable for a dining table centre or a side table display within a traditional interior setting.

FAQs

A French gilt bronze centrepiece vase is a 19th-century decorative table vessel featuring a glass or crystal body fitted into a cast bronze mount, historically finished with gold leaf or gilding.

These items typically feature hand-cut or moulded lead crystal for the upper trumpet section, supported by a cast bronze or brass base that has been chased and gilded.

Authentic pieces generally display heavy hand-cast bronze bases with hand-chased surface details, visible signs of age or oxidisation on the gilding, and thick lead crystal components.

Position the vase on a dining table, sideboard, or mantelpiece, using it either as a standalone focal object or filled with seasonal floral stems to complement modern furnishings.

Clean the glass section carefully using warm water and mild soap, while gently wiping the metal base with a soft dry cloth to prevent damaging the historic gilded surface.
