🌸 Fine porcelain pedestal – Floral ornamentation in late Rococo style
🌸 European decorative work – Circa 1900
With a slender, undulating silhouette that rises like a blooming lily, this porcelain pedestal embodies the ornamental grace of Romantic Europe. Its surface, glazed in ivory white with pearly highlights, is delicately adorned with polychrome floral reliefs—roses, peonies, and leaves in pastel shades—that seem to sprout from the ceramic body as if they were a living part of its structure.
The upper cup, with its scalloped rim, suggests a ceremonial function or a support for a sculpture, while the square base, with its smooth moldings and central gilt medallion, lends visual balance and architectural nobility. Every detail has been applied by hand with precision and sensitivity, evoking the Viennese or French tradition of the late Rococo period, where decorative exuberance merges with formal poetry.
