About the Item
Elegant bronze porte-menu dating from circa 1890, featuring an ornate design with rich neoclassical details. The stand displays a beautifully cast structure adorned with acanthus leaves, scroll motifs, and shell ornaments, all typical of late 19th-century French craftsmanship.
The rectangular display frame sits atop a fluted column and a robust base decorated with a Greek key frieze and stylized foliage. Originally designed for prestigious restaurants or hotels, this piece now serves as a refined decorative element for interiors, galleries, or hospitality spaces.
The aged bronze patina highlights the depth and quality of the casting, making it a true testament to French decorative art from the Belle Époque period.
Condition

Large Antique Wrought Iron and Bronze Double Sided Lectern from France, 19th C.
Located in Dallas, TX
Known as a lutrin in France, this double-sided lectern is highly scrolled and pierced, making a unique and beautiful dais. The imposing French lutrin is comprised of wrought iron with some bronze embellishments (finials and roundel joineries) and dates to the 1800s, although the double-sided platform was added more recently based on the varying patina and welded construction (the bottom is pinned).
An amazing, banded arabesque of scrolls and counter curves emanate from an open roundel, forming the double-sided slant-top platform. The platform is designed to swivel on a rod that runs through it; a ball finial tops the rod, flanked by a pair of Vitruvian waves that form a majestic crest. There is an arbalete edge that extends off both sides of the platform, providing a stable base for holding music...
