All auctions / Furniture, Design & Mirrors / Letter holder - Gilded - Antique table stand
Special French antique table stand with cherubs in Rococo Revival style – circa 1880–1910. This antique table/display stand is executed in rich relief of two winged cherubs, roses, acanthus leaves and pronounced Rococo volutes. The 'chevalet de table' rests on gracefully curled feet and is at the rear provided with a fold-out support, allowing it to stand independently on a table, console or sideboard. The central holder makes it suitable for presenting for example a photo, devotional print, baptism or communion card, wedding card, name card or small menu card. Especially appealing are the two differently modeled cherubs: one rests its head on its hand, while the other lies with arms in front. In combination with the finely worked flower and leaf ornament, it forms a very decorative whole in the French Rococo Revival tradition. This specific model is also unusual: when compared with antique European table- and photo-stands, similar examples with cherubs and a donkey-spring support are known, but an exact identical casting model is hard to find. This underscores the attractive and not everyday character of this object. Specifications: Origin: France. Period: circa 1880–1910. Style: Rococo Revival / Neo-Rococo. Material: metal/iron, gilded. Decor: cherubs, roses, acanthus leaves and rocaille. Height: circa 18 cm. Width/length: circa 18 cm. Depth without folded-out support: circa 2 cm. Weight: 373 grams. Back: hinged fold-out table support. Condition: very good antique condition, with age- and use-related traces appropriate to the age. No damage and functioning well. A particularly decorative object for a classical interior, display cabinet, hall table or sideboard, but also atmospheric for a wedding, baptism, communion or as a stand for a religious image. Shipping: Shipped very carefully and securely packed within 3 days after payment with track & trace.
