A pair of wrought-iron andirons figuring fantastical dragons with slender silhouettes and ferocious expressions. Work of great forging quality. From Bruges in Belgium. Each dragon presents a finely worked head, scrolled tongue and pronounced teeth, a sinuous body resting on four clawed paws and a long tail raised to the rear. These andirons combine function and aesthetic, serving to hold logs in the hearth while imposing a strong decorative presence. Even early patina. Weight: 7.300 kg the pair.

A console in finely carved and giltwood, with Rocaille decoration of scrollwork, acanthus leaves, central cartouche, shells and flower garlands. Cabriole base joined by an openwork foliate stretcher. Shaped white marble top with scrolled moulding. The gilding showing the red bole in places. French work, 19th century.

An elegant pair of table lamps produced by Harvey Guzzini, the celebrated Italian design firm of the 1960s-1970s. Their emblematic silhouette combines a tulip base in transparent plexiglass with a cylindrical chrome-metallic shade with a clear interior, offering both a diffuse and warm light. A true manifesto of Italian Space Age design, this model — rare as a pair — perfectly embodies the refined and futuristic aesthetic of Harvey Guzzini. It integrates equally well into a contemporary décor or a high-end vintage interior. Very good condition, minor signs of use consistent with age. Recently rewired to EU standards.

An elegant vase in Murano glass, executed using the sommerso technique. Its decoration is composed of superposed layers of glass, an emerald-green core, accentuated by a warm amber tone. The prismatic form, with geometric lines and a slightly softened square aperture, reflects the Modernist aesthetic of Murano in the 1960s-1970s.

A large tulip vase in mixed-clay with polychrome decoration of stylised geometric floral motif friezes. Characteristic work of Jean Gerbino, the master ceramicist established in Vallauris, inventor of this striking technique consisting of composing decorations by assembling coloured clays within the mass. Each unique piece reveals the virtuosity of Gerbino's craftsmanship in Vallauris in the 1940s-1960s. Signed "Gerbino Vallauris" beneath the base.

An elegant pair of vases of architectural form, executed in stoneware and enhanced with an ash glaze. Each piece is adorned with a decorative frieze incised with a stylus that emphasises the verticality of the lines. 20th century.

A striking 19th-century wall clock combining ornamental richness and horological precision. The finely carved and gold-leaf gilded case displays an exceptional decoration: two winged griffins flanking an enamelled dial, a stylised palmette at the top, columnettes, floral garlands and a Rocaille shell in the lower section. The whole evokes the Neoclassical aesthetic. Functional mechanical pendulum movement, signed Lenzkirch AG (Germany), numbered 92833. Wall mount signed AUG Stenman — Eskilstuna (Sweden), renowned late 19th-century ironwork. Late 19th century.

A baluster-form vase in polychrome mixed-clay with two triangular handles, signed Gerbino Vallauris beneath the base. It displays the mosaic decoration distinctive of Jean Gerbino's workshop, the master ceramicist established in Vallauris (France), known for his original "mosaic of coloured clays" technique, developed in the 1930s. The piece offers a fine harmony of warm and cool tones, alternating stylised floral motifs, geometric scrolls and interlacings of coloured clays. The contrasts between blue, green, powder pink and browns bring a decorative richness characteristic of the Gerbino savoir-faire. The vase adopts a bellied form with constricted everted neck, flanked by two rectangular handles giving it a both traditional and Modernist appearance.

A large circular plate in cloisonné Longwy enamels, decorated by hand. The polychrome composition depicts two birds perched on a bramble branch laden with blackberries, surrounded by broad foliage in autumnal colours. The ivory ground with a characteristic network of crackles enhances the vivacity of the enamels, underlined by a deep blue line on the rim. On the reverse, stamp "Emaux de Longwy - Décoré à la main - France", used between 1950 and 1955. Numbered.

A Louis XV-style mirror in carved and giltwood, adorned with an openwork pediment decorated with a bird amid scrollwork and foliage. The frame, with floral and volute decoration, presents a fine and balanced carving. Antique gold-leaf gilding, with a fine patina and some signs of use. Original mirror plate. French work, 19th century.

A very fine oil on panel by Jules-Ernest Martin Chablis depicting a landscape on the edge of a pond animated by a figure in a boat and a small edifice on the shore. The composition is balanced, of great gentleness, with subtle work on the skies and reflections. The brushwork is precise, nervous and characteristic of 19th-century French naturalist painting. The reverse bears an oval stamp of a Parisian colourman, confirming a period support. Antique gilt wood frame, decorated with lattice and acanthus leaves. Wear consistent with use.

A very fine Louis XVI-period mirror in carved giltwood and parcel-gilt, with a pediment adorned with birds, a quiver filled with arrows, and flowers. Gold-leaf gilding. The uprights are decorated with foliage and terminate in pine cones. Original mercury-backed mirror plate. Later wood backing.

Italian ceramic, fiori applicati technique. Very fine condition. A superb pair of Italian ceramic candelabra, work of Bassano del Grappa, executed between the 1920s and 1940s. These pieces perfectly illustrate the Venetian decorative tradition of fiori applicati, in which each flower, petal and leaf is hand-modelled then applied one by one to the structure. This savoir-faire, of great finesse, constitutes one of the historic signatures of the Bassano ateliers. The highly floral composition reprises the decorative codes of Venetian Baroque: twisted garlands, rosettes, deep colours and ivory glaze, typical of early 20th-century production. Fine state of preservation. Soft and even patina. Italy, 20th century.

A superb Italian Baroque mirror in carved openwork wood, presenting a highly animated Rocaille decoration and great richness of execution. The frame is entirely worked by hand, with a remarkable interplay of volutes, foliage, cartouches and scrolls characteristic of the Baroque style of Northern Italy. The upper section is adorned with a figure sculpted in high relief, set within a Rocaille decoration. The deep piercings testify to virtuoso work, typical of the 18th-century Italian ateliers. The feet are integrated into the frame decoration in a continuous ascending movement, according to a typology proper to the Veneto and Piedmont. Original plate. Wear and losses, spotted silvering linked to age.

A fine oil on canvas dated 1910 and signed (signature unidentified) depicting a lush and colourful waterside landscape. Late Impressionism. The artist displays fine mastery of material and light: vibrant brushstrokes, depth of construction, rich palette ranging from deep greens to autumnal reds. Signature and date visible lower left, 1910, signature unidentified. Antique carved and gilt wood frame. Fine patina.

A rare and striking Italian lamp in white-glazed ceramic attributed to the Capodimonte ateliers, depicting an allegorical male bust adorned with rich high-relief decoration. The figure, blindfolded, is crowned with a generous wreath of vine leaves and finely modelled grape clusters, typical of Capodimonte productions of the second half of the 20th century: meticulously applied foliage, plump grapes in relief, expressive modelling of the face, theatrical aesthetic of mythological inspiration. The bust also displays a vine-tendril motif in the hands. Cylindrical lampshade. Italy, circa 1960-1970.

A superb tapestry hand-woven at Aubusson, from the Atelier Jean Picaud, presenting a wolf-hunt decoration in a wooded landscape in the manner of the classic verdures. The scene depicts a wolf surrounded by a pack of hounds, treated with a remarkable sense of movement and drama. The whole is rhythmed by an interplay of blue, green, ochre and beige foliage, a palette characteristic of 20th-century Aubusson production. The work stands out for the quality of its weaving visible on the reverse: regular density, diversity of wools, finesse of the gradients. The cartoon reprises the decorative vocabulary of the great 18th-century hunting tapestries, reinterpreted with sensibility by the Aubusson ateliers. Very fine general condition. Ready to hang. France, mid-20th century.

An elegant pair of seated greyhounds, executed in reconstituted stone, intended to ornament a garden, terrace or entrance setting. Identical subjects forming a pair. Natural patina linked to an early outdoor installation. Portugal, 20th century. Weight: 44 kg per piece, that is 88 kg for the pair.

An elegant occasional column or pedestal of rectangular form, executed in painted wood on a deep black ground, enhanced with gilt decoration. Italian 19th-century production drawing on the 18th-century ornamental repertoire. The four faces present a symmetrical composition of foliate scrolls, fleurons and stylised floral motifs, finely executed in matte gilding on a black ground. The design combines Neoclassical rigour with Baroque reminiscences, lending the piece an assertive architectural presence. The column opens with a side door fitted with original early hardware, giving access to a natural-wood interior fitted with a fixed shelf. The structure rests on a sober moulded base, and is surmounted by an overhanging upper top with softened edges, also accentuated with gilding. Polychromy preserved with wear consistent with age. Halfway between furniture and decorative element, serving as a decorative column, support for objects or a discreet small storage piece.
