The Pentimento Decoupage Cake Pedestal by John Derian layers history and artistry beneath glass. Each piece is meticulously handcrafted in Derian’s New York studio, where trained artisans cut and collage imagery from his extensive archive of 18th- and 19th-century prints. The design, sealed beneath handblown glass, reveals subtle textures and time-worn beauty that speak to the art of reinvention.
Ideal for serving or display, this pedestal brings an evocative, vintage sensibility to the table — a collector’s piece blending utility and natural beauty.
