Centerpiece in bronze and glass.
Bronde casting to lost wax.
It presents a cup shape, with the foot made of four bamboo canes joined with a cord and decorated with flowers and leaves, the container in transparent glass and the two handles with leaves curved inwards.

Bronze sculpture depicting the Art Nouveau naturalist effigy of a half-naked boy with a branch where two birds perch. Following models of A. MOREAU.
This denomination refers to the intention of creating a new art, carrying out a break with the dominant styles at the time, such as historicism or eclecticism. It is about creating a new aesthetic, in which inspiration in nature predominates while incorporating novelties derived from the industrial revolution. And so in architecture the use of iron and glass is frequent. However, it is also a reaction to the poor aesthetics of iron architecture, so in vogue for those years.
To a large extent their aspirations are based on the ideas of John Ruskin and William Morris, which we can summarize in democratizing beauty in the sense that even everyday objects have aesthetic value and are accessible to the entire population (socialization of art), although without using the new techniques of mass production. Modernism not only occurs in the major arts, but also in the design of furniture and all kinds of useful objects in everyday life. Often modernist artists are "integral" artists, for they not only design buildings, but also furniture and other everyday items. So many modernist architects are also designers, since their creations are not limited to the building itself, since they also elaborate their decoration and the utensils that it must contain. Consequently it happened in architecture, painting, sculpture and in the decorative arts (furniture, fittings, lamps, jewels, posters, etc.)."

Beautiful modernist sculpture that follows the models of Antoine Louis Barye "Panther"
Barye was one of the first and most representative examples of naturalism. At the same time, he picked up the romantic taste for exotic landscapes, depicting wild animals with strong scenes of confrontation as the Tiger devouring a gavial presented in the Salon of 1831 had a very favorable criticism.
The king commissioned him in 1833 a sculpture for the garden of the Tuileries, Bayre made the lion with snake as an allegory of the monarchy crushing the insurgency (three years after the riots of 1830). This work was unanimously accepted and Alfred de Musset wrote about it: "Mr. Barye's bronze lion is scary, like nature. What strength and what truth! The lion roars, and the whistles of the serpent feel ...
Bayre's style softened since 1843, without losing the vigor he made groups like Teso and the Minotaur with great energy and movement"
