This jardinière titled 'Louis XVI enroulement' was a popular pattern existing in at least two sizes, often silver plated or more unusually in gilt-bronze like the present lot. One ordered by the Ministère d'état for the Tuileries is exhibited in the Louvre, and illustrated in J. Fleming & H. Honour, Penguin Dictionary of Decorative Arts, 1989, p. 740. Another in silvered-bronze, with Napoleon III cypher, sold Sotheby's, Paris, 28 March 2007, lot 148 (43,200 euro).
