Baroque Crystal & Brass Single-Tier Candy Dish with Ornate Leaf Handle

Design & Inspiration

This exquisite single-tier candy dish draws inspiration from the grandeur of Baroque and French Rococo design traditions. The dramatically sculpted brass handle rises from the center of the crystal tray in the form of intertwining leaves, branches, and a crown-like ring, evoking the ornamental vocabulary of 18th-century European aristocratic tableware. Every curve and flourish speaks of opulence and artistic mastery, making this piece as much a work of art as a functional serving dish. Ideal as a stunning centerpiece on a dining table, console, or reception sideboard.

Materials & Craftsmanship

Constructed from two exceptional materials — premium hand-cut crystal and solid brass — this bonbonniere represents the pinnacle of handcrafted luxury. The crystal tray features a richly textured, lace-like cut-glass pattern with a scalloped edge, catching and refracting light beautifully. The brass components — including the heavily ornate leaf-and-ring handle, the faceted crystal ball stem, and the elaborately carved square base — are all cast and hand-finished by skilled Egyptian artisans. The brass carries a warm antique finish that ages gracefully, adding depth and character over time.

Dimensions & Details

This piece is a single-tier serving dish — perfect for presenting chocolates, bonbons, dried fruits, or decorative items. The ornate brass base features four sculpted feet and intricate relief carvings of scrolls and acanthus leaves. The faceted crystal sphere connecting the base to the tray adds a brilliant jewel-like accent. This item weighs approximately 4 kg, reflecting the substantial quality of its solid brass and crystal construction. Available in multiple brass finish variants to suit your interior palette.

Handcrafted in Egypt

Every piece is individually handcrafted in Egypt by Brass & Wood artisans who carry forward generations of metalworking and glassworking traditions. No two pieces are exactly alike — minor variations in the hand-finishing are a testament to authentic craftsmanship rather than machine production. When you choose Brass & Wood, you are investing in a heritage object that will remain a cherished heirloom for generations.
