Victorian-era silver-plated table centerpiece. - Lot 299
Victorian-era silver-plated table centerpiece.
Silver-plated set consisting of a table centerpiece and a pair of matching candlesticks. The bases, with their curvilinear shapes, are richly adorned with bunches of grapes, vine tendrils, and rocaille scrollwork.
The centerpiece consists of a circular bowl resting on a putto figure holding a bunch of grapes, evoking the Bacchic theme.
Each of the two candlesticks features a sculptural composition of two superimposed putti supporting a fluted vase serving as a cup, lavishly decorated with grapevines in relief. The set rests on naturalistic terraces embellished with vine leaves and fruit.
