We present you with this exquisite pair of cassolettes crafted from violet breccia marble, dating back to the Napoleon III era.

The upper bronze parts of these cassolettes are intricately decorated with flowers, adding a delicate and feminine touch to their overall aesthetic appeal. These pieces serve as highly decorative accents, perfect for enhancing the charm of a fireplace or dresser. Originating from the late 19th century, they are in very good condition.
