Late 19th-Century French Copper Dessert Mold W/ Embossed Pear Decoration - 3½" x 7"

This antique French copper mold, likely from the late 19th to early 20th century, features a beautifully embossed pear framed by leaves, an elegant nod to the natural motifs often favored in traditional French kitchens. The gadrooned sides add texture and sophistication, while the warm copper surface displays areas of natural patina that speak to its age and authenticity. It retains its original hanging hook, making it easy to display on a wall.

Copper molds like this were commonly used to prepare molded desserts such as jellies, creams, or fruit-based confections. Their decorative quality made them just as appreciated for display as for practical use, particularly in professional kitchens and refined households.

Today, this piece can be showcased on a shelf or wall, either on its own or as part of a curated collection, bringing a touch of rustic French charm and culinary history to your home.
