A stunning and extremely decorative French 19th century Louis XVI st. onyx, ormolu, and Cloisonné pedestal and matching centerpiece. The column is raised by a square base with a beautiful stepped design, ormolu feet, and a mottled ormolu socle support with a striking interlocking band, foliate designs, and a remarkable Cloisonné wrap around band. The onyx column displays an elegant fluted design with a beautiful richly chased pierced ormolu mount of a charming woven basket with lovely blooming flowers tied with a ribbon at the front below a superb colorful Cloisonné reserve also repeated at each side and the back. Above the lightly tapered ormolu support decorated with finely detailed rosettes is the square display tier where the centerpiece rests. The centerpiece is raised by a square base with exceptional scrolled foliate feet in a rich satin and burnished finish and striking scrolled Cloisonné plaques at each side. The socle shaped pedestal support displays a fine mottled band below the beautifully shaped body encased with an outstanding wrap around Cloisonné band with spectacular wonderfully executed colorful foliate designs. At each side are charming intricately detailed love birds perched on the scrolled handles with topie shaped finials, exceptional attention to detail, and richly chased plumage. Also finished on the inside with a mottled design at the rim.
