The rounded glass vessel sits within an openwork bronze mount composed of deeply modeled flowers, leaves, and scrolling stems that wrap continuously around the exterior.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe floral decoration appears to be inspired by chrysanthemums, with layered, curling petals and broad leaves rendered in high relief. The bronze has developed a wonderfully warm aged surface with darker recesses and touches of verdigris throughout, emphasizing the depth of the casting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eViewed from above, the piece is especially striking: the transparent glass allows the bronze framework to remain visible beneath and around the bowl, creating a beautiful layered effect between the clear vessel and the sculptural metalwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLikely intended as a decorative centerpiece, bonbon dish, table bowl, or small jardinière, it would be beautiful used today for collected objects, wrapped candies, florals, or simply left empty as a decorative object.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glass shows light surface wear consistent with age, while the bronze retains oxidation, patina, and areas of verdigris that we have left untouched.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaterials: Clear glass and cast bronze\u003cbr\u003eStyle: Art Nouveau \/ naturalistic floral\u003cbr\u003eEstimated age: circa 1890–1910\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: 6 x 6 x 2.75\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MAETIQUES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53017304891674,"sku":"S37","price":165.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/0780\/3930\/files\/GreyWhiteMinimalBoldBloggerQ_AInstagramStory-2026-10-06T152650.814.png?v=1791318416","url":"https:\/\/maetiques.com\/products\/french-glass-bowl-with-bronze-chrysanthemum-mount","provider":"MAETIQUES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
