A Monumental 18/19th C. French Ormolu Mounted Grey Marble Covered Urn w/ Handles
Located in New York, NY
A Monumental Late 1700's/Early 1800's French Ormolu Mounted Marble Covered Urn
Presenting an extraordinary Monumental 18/19th Century French Ormolu Mounted Marble Covered Urn. Crafted with meticulous precision, this exquisite urn showcases a captivating blend of materials and intricate ornamentation.
The urn features a splendid mid-toned grey uniformly patterned marble, skillfully carved into a rounded bulb. Both the lid and body of the urn gracefully mimic the contours of an egg, lending an harmonious and organic appeal to the overall design. Adorning the base of the body are carved ormolu ferns, beautifully encircling the bottom of the belly as it descends to a marble pedestal that is ringed at the bottom with an ormolu wreath resting atop a stunning cubic stepped deep-green marble plinth.
Crowning the urn is a pineapple finial, exquisitely crafted from ormolu bronze. Encircling the base of this handle, one can admire a delicate ring of foliate ormolu bronze, adding a touch of sophistication to the composition. The handles on either side of the urn are a delightful departure from the conventional, boasting ribbed, angled, and bent-square ormolu designs. This unexpected detail adds a refreshing and distinctive element to the overall aesthetic.
To further enhance its grandeur, the grey marble urn is adorned with ornate and delicate foliate ormolu bronze scrolls. These intricate scrolls gracefully meander along the belly of the urn, lending a sense of opulence and refinement to the piece.
In terms of size, this Monumental 18/19th Century French Ormolu Mounted Marble Covered Urn commands attention with its substantial proportions. Standing tall and proud, its dimensions convey magnificence and presence, truly befitting its status as a significant antique artifact...
