Decorative epergnes are elaborate, multi-tiered centerpieces traditionally used to hold flowers, fruits, or sweetmeats, often serving as the dramatic focal point of a formal dining table. Originating in 18th-century Europe, these ornate structures—typically made of silver, glass, or porcelain—combine function with extravagance, featuring branching arms, hanging baskets, and finely wrought detailing. Epergnes reflect a bygone era of opulent entertaining, where the table itself became a stage for artistry and abundance. Though their practical use has waned, they remain prized as statement antiques, admired for their theatrical beauty and the sense of grandeur they bring to any setting.

Size: 16 1/2 x 11 x 10 in.
