Lead Bird Bath on Lion Supports, late 19th century

Offered by: Modern Antiquarian

Description
A testament to late 19th-century French craftsmanship, this lead bird bath stands as a regal garden element, exuding both elegance and resplendence. Supported by majestic lion figures, each meticulously crafted in detail, the birdbath commands attention with its imposing presence. The lead material lends a weathered charm, hinting at the passage of time while retaining its enduring allure. Adorned with embellishments and flourishes, the bath captures the essence of French neoclassical design, invoking a sense of timeless beauty and sophistication. As a sanctuary for avian visitors, it not only serves a practical purpose but also stands as a symbol of refined luxury. Lead is a soft material and, as such, has some indents and imperfections. Wear consistent with age and use. 15.5"w x 13.75"d x 9"h.
