Description
The rectangular jardiniere is formed of four Sevres style porcelain plaques, each held within an ornately cast ormolu frame. The two larger porcelain plaques each depict a woman, one in a blue dress and one in a yellow dress, playing and frolicking in a landscape setting with cupids, set within a turquoise border with gold highlights. The two adjacent smaller plaques each feature painted floral arrangements, similarly bordered with turquoise and gold. The jardiniere sits on a punctured ormolu base of stylized branches and scroll forms, featuring a central classical head to the front.
Stamped to the interior "ALLAIN FRERES 74"
