Bronze cup decorated with a boxing match

This bowl depicting a boxing match was made in the first half of the 20th century.

Two boxers are fighting, one coming forward to punch the other in the face, the other receiving the blow. The posture of the antagonists shows that the artist was well versed in the movements of the sport.

Double Quarter-Turn Staircase and Walkway in Cast Iron and Wrought Iron, 1865

This staircase in cast iron and wrought iron dates to 1865; it was reportedly made for the Palais Bourbon in Paris, now the seat of the French National Assembly. It is a double quarter-turn staircase that leads to a walkway. The staircase features regular, geometric ornamentation. The first step is particularly decorated: with rounded corners at the front, it bears the date 1865, surrounded by a palmette and stylized leaves. The following steps are simply openworked. The risers are adorned with a rose in their center and fluted openwork on either side. The starting posts are especially elaborate. The staircase is equipped with a handrail that accompanies the ascent. The walkway to which it leads features similar ornamentation. The supporting brackets are highly ornate: at the top, a frieze of openwork fluting echoes that of the risers and completes a rose; at the bottom, a scroll responds to the various geometric or acanthus scroll friezes.
