Antique French Empire Napoleon Crystal Bronze Massive Centerpiece

A true museum antique French Empire large palace crystal and bronze center piece. Having its original diamond cut crystal bronze mounted bowl ( given the brilliantly diamond cut crystal probably the work of Baccarat) which sits correctly on its large ormolu gilt Dore bronze base which is held up by the three winged bronze graces in absolutely the most detailed and crisp execution ( the quality is so exquisite and precise that you can see their expression a d the strands of each winged ladies hair tied in a bonnet as well as the feathers in their wings). Note the detail in the toes as well as the paws that make the feet of this museum treasure! Amazingly no damages ( gilt gold naturally tarnished and shows wear consistent with age being exposed to the atmosphere in 200 hundred years )
