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

This delightful late 19th-century French copper mold features an embossed pear-on-a-branch motif, likely used for molded desserts such as jellies or puddings. Its richly aged surface showcases a warm copper tone accented by areas of natural patina, adding depth and character to the piece. The gadrooned sides and raised detailing give it a strong decorative presence. Some dents are visible and consistent with age, yet they do not detract from the mold’s beauty; rather, they contribute to its antique allure and authenticity.

 Originally intended for culinary use in a hotel kitchen in Avignon, this mold now serves as a charming decorative object. Whether hung on a wall using its original hook or displayed on a shelf or in a kitchen vignette, it brings a sense of warmth, history, and artisanal charm to any space. Its compact size and sculptural surface catch the light beautifully, making it a small but impactful accent that celebrates the artistry of French kitchenware.
