Objects of this kind -- heavy spheres ground or cast from local stone -- were produced across France for centuries, from medieval fortifications through to the early modern period, and their forms have survived in barns, chateau gardens and estate collections ever since.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach ball presents a beautifully weathered surface of warm brown and taupe tones, with fine surface crazing and shallow pitting that speak to long years of exposure. No two are identical: slight variations in tone and texture give the group a natural, collected quality that works equally well grouped on a mantelpiece, arranged in a low bowl or nestled among books on a shelf. One ball shows a broad band of darker mineral staining on one side, adding graphic contrast to the trio. Their rounded forms and earthy palette make them a natural fit for a French farmhouse interior or a study layered with antique finds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition and patina consistent with age. Surface crazing, minor pitting and one area of dark mineral staining visible; all characteristics of genuinely aged stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach ball measures approximately 3.5 to 4.3 in in diameter (9 to 11 cm).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e95% of my items are tariff-free to the US.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- fmf-shopify --\u003e","brand":"Fleamarketfrance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59017295429976,"sku":"FMF-3RXXNXD4","price":155.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0895\/5776\/2392\/files\/3f45213fb8565c5beb65f18452b607aa.jpg?v=1793688307","url":"https:\/\/fleamarketfrance.com\/products\/antique-french-stone-cannonballs-set-03112617","provider":"Fleamarketfrance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
