Crafted in hammered copper and raised on a pedestal foot, this antique wine cooler features lion head ring handles, decorative applied roundels and a rich aged patina developed over many decades. Dating to the early 20th century, it combines practical function with strong decorative appeal.
With its generous proportions, the cooler is ideal for chilling wine or champagne and makes an eye-catching centrepiece for a dining table, kitchen island or entertaining space. The warm tones of the copper pair beautifully with antique pottery, wooden furniture and natural materials, making it equally suited to French country, rustic and traditional interiors.
The hand-hammered surface catches the light beautifully, while the lion mask handles add a classical decorative touch. The interior retains signs of age and use consistent with a piece of this period, contributing to its authentic character and history.
Whether used as a wine cooler, champagne bucket, planter cache pot or decorative vessel, this antique copper piece brings warmth and texture to the home.

Fantastic! Beautiful! I have been hunting for some Alfred Corneau urns for many years, as most sellers won't send them internationally, as well as at such a reasonable exchange rate. Very happy! : )
