19th Century French Mirrored Table Centerpiece

19th Century French bronze mirrored table centerpiece or "Surtout de tables". 

Wonderfully ornate frippery for the formal dining table, on which candelabras and other ornaments can be displayed and enhanced. 

This example features the original distressed mirror plate, which adds to its appeal! Remnants of the label verso read "Vor Etienne" This is Vor Etienne & Fils of 29 Rue Paradis, Paris, which was "the" street in Paris for crystal, porcelain and other quality manufacture and retail - including the home of famed glass manufacturer Baccarat.
