Antique French Gilt Bronze Laurel Wreath Mount

Antique French Gilt Bronze Laurel Wreath Mount

Sourced from the markets of France, this exquisite gilt bronze ornament features a beautifully detailed laurel wreath tied with a flowing ribbon — a timeless emblem of victory and refinement. Once part of a finely crafted piece of French furniture or architectural décor, the square fitting on the reverse indicates it was designed to be mounted into wood, likely adorning the top of a mirror, a commode, or a frame.

The gold finish has softened over time to a rich, warm patina that highlights its age and character. Whether displayed on its own, framed in a shadowbox, or incorporated into a decorative project, it brings an unmistakable touch of Parisian elegance and history to any space.
