This hexagonal clay pedestal, created by Belgian artist Eugène Lacomblé between 1860 and 1870, is a testament to the meticulous detail of his work. Lacomblé, known for his innovative designs and meticulous craftsmanship, designed this piece as a base for a flower stand. Its simple yet elegant form, adorned with intricate incised lines, highlights Lacomblé's penchant for classical aesthetics. The pedestal's modest size, measuring 8.2 cm in height and 13.2 cm in diameter, suggests its intended use as a supporting element for a larger floral arrangement. This clay model, a testament to Lacomblé's artistic vision, offers a glimpse into his process of creating functional and aesthetically pleasing designs.
