This elegant Neo-Renaissance style planter, made of fine white faience with majolica-type colored glazes, is a remarkable example of 19th-century craftsmanship. Its oval shape and the four clawed feet supporting it give it a distinctive presence. Furthermore, the handles adorned with grimacing satyr heads, whose horns rest on the rim of the planter, add an artistic and whimsical touch to the whole.

This model, bearing the number 918, embodies a Japonisme theme, reflecting the influence of Japanese art on European design of the period. In the center of the basin, a carp emerges from the water, creating a captivating focal point. The motifs of white flowers, reeds, and a dragonfly adorning the edges of the basin evoke nature and add a dimension of grace to this piece.

This specific planter dates from 1880, making it a historical example of 19th-century art and craftsmanship. It is currently on display at the Faience Museum in Sarreguemines, making it a valuable collector's item and demonstrating the cultural importance of this object.

It should be noted that the planter has a defect, namely the loss of part of one of the satyr's horns, which adds a historical dimension to the object as a testament to its use and history.
