French Faience Pierced Pedestal Sweetmeat Urn with Lid

Sourced in the markets of Paris.

A delightful French faience covered sweetmeat urn measuring 6.5 inches tall by 4.5 inches wide, designed in an airy pierced lattice form with a matching domed lid. The soft blush pink banding and delicate hand painted floral sprigs give it that unmistakable provincial charm.

Raised on a petite pedestal base, the openwork body allows light to pass through beautifully, creating shadow and dimension whether displayed on its own or layered among porcelain and silver. The lid is crowned with a simple curled finial and rests neatly within the scalloped rim.

There is light age appropriate wear consistent with antique faience, adding character without distracting from its overall presence. It is both sculptural and functional, perfect for holding wrapped sweets, dried florals, or simply standing as a decorative accent in a collected vignette.
