French antique crystal bronze and brass cornet soliflore vase from the early 1920s.

Beautiful French antique crystal bronze and brass cornet trumpet-style soliflore with a large cut glass crystal trumpet cornet-shaped vase balanced on a black bronze urn decorated in swags to a turned brass pilaster and a large brass drip tray sitting on another turned brass pilaster base. Fabricated very early 1900s and with excellent proportions, it would look fantastic in the centre of a table or on a large mantelpiece. Condition is excellent considering its age; there are no cracks in the vase or chips. There is a slight patina of time in places, more so on the large brass drip tray at the bottom, where you can see rose colours where the brass is oxidised and has probably been polished a lot over time. The black urn in the centre also has some white markings on it; I have not tried to remove them, but they can be seen in the photos. Apart from that, there is nothing that would detract from its beauty. Dimensions: Total height: 43 cm (17 inches) Height of the vase: 21 cm (8.2 inches) Width: 21.5 cm (8.4 inches) Weight before packaging: 2 kg.
