An antique French cast iron jardinière by the Faure Père & Fils foundry of Revin, dating to the late 19th or early 20th century.
This decorative oval planter features an elaborate raised grapevine design, with trailing leaves, tendrils and clusters of grapes across its sides. Two open handles extend from the shaped rim, while four short feet support the planter.
The pale green painted finish has weathered beautifully over time, revealing areas of darker cast iron beneath and highlighting the intricate decoration. The underside bears the crowned FP&F foundry mark and the number 25, believed to be the model reference.
A lovely piece for displaying ferns, seasonal planting or floral arrangements, equally attractive when displayed empty.

The vintage glass storage jars are exactly as advertised. Excellent customer service! I placed two separate orders several days apart, but they were packed and shipped together. I was quickly reimbursed for overage shipping costs before even requesting a refund! Each jar was very well packed to minimize chance of breakage in transit, and they all arrived undamaged. I will shop here again!
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! : )
