**Free shipping. A very rare find - this is a superb 19th Century French gilt bronze Chinese style display stand. A reticulated Chinoiserie design with six Ming style scrolled feet. The upper rim is decorated with a roll of repeating rectangular spirals know as "meander' or basic key fret patter (hui wen). Under that, larger reticulated panels of scroll work join the body/feet. Made for a vase with a round, 6 1/2" diameter foot rim. Would make an incredible stand for a high end Chinese piece. Condition is excellent. Impressed foundry marks on the underside "J" repeated 6 times on the insides of the 6 feet as shown. Age: 19th century.
Overall 8 1/2" diameter x 1 5/8" tall. Area where vase sits is 6 1/2" diameter. 1.2 pounds.
