A substantial mid-century silver-plated champagne vasque with an impressive architectural presence. The generous, deep bowl is raised on a broad flared pedestal, creating a strong sculptural silhouette designed to command attention on a dining table, sideboard or console.
Weighing approximately 1.7 kg, the piece has a pleasing solidity and presence. The silver-plated surface has developed a softly varied patina over time, with gentle tonal changes and areas of wear that reveal its history of use.
Designed originally for serving and chilling champagne, its generous proportions also make it an striking decorative vessel, equally suited to a large floral arrangement or displayed as a sculptural centrepiece.
