Jardinières & Poissonnières

Bailey & Co hunt down beautiful antique French Jardinières , (centrepieces planters,) from areas in and around Paris. We love elegant Louis xv styled jardinières and also Nouveau styled jardinières. These antique French pieces are still being admired placed in the centre a dining table - whether the room is formal or country provincial. Antique French copper Poissonnières (or fish poachers) were crafted from copper with a large forged iron handle attached with rivets. This French country kitchen essential can still be used for fish cooking. Today many people also use them as jardinières for a more rustic country look. This traditional piece can also be used as a decorative flower or fruit jardinière in a kitchen or on a table.
