About the Item

An exceptionally elegant French Art Nouveau cachepot, dating from the late 19th century, featuring a striking "whiplash" brass structure and rare opalescent glass. The frame appears to float, capturing the organic dynamism typical of the finest French Art Nouveau creations. The richly patinated brass is intricately worked with detailed wheat sheaf motifs, beautifully highlighted against the rare opalescent glass backdrop. This piece is a rare collectible, likely produced by an exclusive French atelier, and showcases outstanding craftsmanship in both design and execution. A true masterpiece, perfect for collectors and refined interiors.
