Italian terracotta ‘Coupe d'abondance aux fruits' circa 1900.
This centrepiece depicts a standing dish overflowing with fruit including lemons, oranges, grapes, apples, pomegranates, etc.
Good condition overall, with a few small chips to some of the fruit leaves (very insignificant).
The cup of plenty, in connection with the mythological horn of plenty, is synonymous with an inexhaustible source of blessings, liberality but also prudence.
The horn of plenty (cornucopia in Latin) is a mythological object in the shape of a ruminant's horn or a newt's shell used by Pluto, the Roman god of wealth and abundance. It is most often depicted bursting with fruit, but also with milk, honey and other soft, sweet foods.
According to the most popular tradition, the horn of plenty adorned the forehead of the goat Amalthea, who fed Zeus as a child.
