Patère sheet brass and copper

This solid brass patère, rare and original, is a storage accessory as practical as poetic. Whether it's storing a jacket or in the lobby, hanging a towel in the bathroom or hanging your mini's pyjama store, you'll love its pretty, delicately chiseled leaf shape and gorgeous golden patina. We particularly like the relief created by the curved metal, the detail of the ribs that makes it so realistic and the contrast of the small copper tip. Its relatively large size makes it a decorative object in its own right that catches the eye, whether used or not. The patère is in good general condition. It is heavy and strong. Stripes are present on the surface of the metal. Traces of oxidation are to be noted, as well as grey green in the hollow of the ribs. The brass is bright and superbly patinated by the years.
