Early Palais Royal presentation with swinging glass sent bottle

Bronze dorè stand with wooden base, covered in gilded silk with four shield-shaped plates as feet. On this base is placed an arch, resting on two segmented balls, decorated with acanthus leaves, two small blue and white porcelain bells and a festoon garland surmounted by a peacock. From the arch hangs a swing that supports a hexagonal glass bottle with red and white spirals and matching cap.
