Item Details

Silvered Metal Champagne Bucket. Orfèvrerie Saint-Médard. Lion-Head Handles with Rings

The tapering silvered metal body, with a smooth and bright surface, flares slightly towards a rolled neck underlined by a frieze of twisted gadroons. Two finely chased lion muzzles, applied in opposition, hold in their mouths mobile rings serving as grips.

This model with Neoclassical decoration is a production of Orfèvrerie Saint-Médard, a French house renowned for its silvered metal hollowware of the mid-20th century, whose lion-head buckets have become classics of the art of the table.

Condition report: Good overall condition. Even and bright silvering, a few fine scratches of use on the surface, with no notable loss. A timeless entertaining accessory, equally at home on a festive table as on a bar serving cart.
