Antique Victorian French Silk Ribbon Display Stand Plinth Pedestal Vase Bases Pair
This is a rare, matching pair of authentic antique late Victorian to Edwardian era (circa 1890s-1910s) miniature display plinths/stands, rendered in an elegant French Boudoir style.
Each stand features a tier-molded wooden base with wonderful original "faded grandeur" patina, showcasing remnants of gold gilt and polychrome paint over four ball feet. The tops are inset with an exquisite silk jacquard/embroidered fabric accented with central pink satin ribbon-work, delicate rosebuds, and foliage motifs.
Originally designed to elevate small porcelain figurines, miniature vases, or pocket watches, this pair retains immense decorative charm for collectors of Shabby Chic, Rococo, or Victorian textiles.
