Aquarium

This rectangular aquarium combines thick glass panes with a burnished steel frame, elevated by a scrolled wrought iron base and decorative dolphin terminals. Its construction reflects early 19th-century craftsmanship, with subtle irregularities in the glass adding to its historical charm and character.

“A rare piece that feels more like a display case or vitrine—beautiful whether filled with shells, books, or left empty.”

France, 1830
