An epergne is a decorative table centrepiece popular during the Victorian period, designed to hold flowers, fruit, or sweetmeats during formal dining. Single-trumpet varieties featured a central removable glass horn supported by an ornate metal base.

Victorian epergnes were predominantly crafted using blown or molded glasssuch as frosted, opalescent, or cranberry glasssupported by cast white metal, pewter, or electroplated nickel silver bases featuring relief motifs.

Authentic period pieces display detailed casting features, hand-formed glass trumpets with hand-finished edges, and age-consistent oxidisation or patina on the metal base rather than uniform modern plating.

Place the epergne centrally on a dining table or sideboard top to serve as a focal point, displaying botanical stems or remaining unadorned to showcase the relief metalwork.

Wash the glass trumpet separately in lukewarm water with mild detergent, and gently wipe the metal base using a dry microfiber cloth to clean without stripping original patina.
