A Pair of Bronze and Griotte Marble Cassolettes after a model by Clodion
$7,500.00
A pair of French lidded gilt bronze and patinated bronze cassolettes after a popular model by the 18th century sculptor Clodion. The lids and circular urn bases are gilded and sit on a circular griotte marble base, (the whole on a later further shaped griotte marble base likely added for height). The patinated body of the urn features two side horned grotesque heads joined with a garland above frolicking cupids pulling and riding on a lion
