About this piece
Wonderful antique French ‘cloche de melon’; beautiful watergreen glass.
These cloches were used in gardens to protect young plants for cold and rough weather outside.
Highly decorative, just by itself, or you can put a nice item underneath the glass, but as is, on a large farmhouse table, will look marvelous…
Considering its age the item is in a very good condition. Some minor things such as a small chip off the knob at the top (which is usually cut off ) and along the rim. See images.
Size:
H 31 cm
Diameter (open side) 51 cm
Cannot be shipped with regular mail as it is too vunerable.
