Elegant Second Empire jardinière, in blackened wood enhanced with finely chiseled bronze ornaments.
It rests on four tapered and fluted legs, united by an X-shaped stretcher adorned in its center with a bronze motif.

Small bronze side handles add a precious and refined touch to the ensemble.
The interior, in original sheet metal, is fitted with its period handles.

Coming from a château in Burgundy, this piece testifies to the opulent and controlled taste of the Second Empire, an era when furniture combined imperial splendor and ornamental delicacy.
