About the Item

Large 19th Century Zinc Warwick Vase, 1820, England This magnificent Warwick vase, dating to approximately 1820, showcases the elegance and grandeur of early 19th-century English craftsmanship. Made from zinc, the vase features an impressive design inspired by the iconic ancient Roman marble Warwick vase, discovered at Hadrian’s Villa in Tivoli around 1771. The vase’s intricate Bacchic ornamentation is one of its most striking features. Decorated with classical masks, garlands of vines, and intertwined handles resembling naturalistic branches, the vase evokes the spirit of Roman celebrations dedicated to Bacchus, the god of wine and revelry. Its detailed craftsmanship and robust construction are testaments to the artistic and technical skills of the period. The Warwick vase has been widely celebrated for its historical and artistic significance, with various reproductions crafted in marble, bronze, and other materials. This zinc version represents a durable and weather-resistant adaptation, ideal for both interior and exterior use. With its monumental size and commanding presence, this piece serves as a true statement item. It can be displayed as a standalone decorative feature or used functionally as an opulent planter for lush greenery or floral arrangements. Whether in a grand garden, stately home, or exhibition space, this Warwick vase is sure to captivate and inspire admiration.

Impressive 19th Century Warwick Vase
Located in Wormelow, Herefordshire
An impressive 19th century terracotta scale Warwick Vase standing on a weathered terracotta pedestal. Stamped ‘Blanchard & Co’, this particular design features in their 1869 illustrated catalogue of Beautiful Works of Art: Terracotta (pictured), so we are confident that it dates from this period. Though smaller than the original, this Warwick Vase is of impressive scale, standing at 1.5m tall. It comprises of 2 components: the decorative vase and its pedestal. The vase is detailed with an egg and dart moulded rim above male and female masks among vine leaves, berries and scrolls in high relief and entwined handles as it is in the original. The pedestal is simpler, featuring moulded wreath decoration, elevating the urn to eye level so that its grandeur can be closely observed. It is approximately 160 years old and as such features age-related weathering, chips, losses and historic restorations, each adding to the time-worn appeal of the piece. Core details of the vase remain intact making it instantly recognisable as the famous Warwick Vase. Provenance This terracotta Warwick Vase and pedestal was sourced from Bodfach Hall, a historic country house with expansive grounds in the heart of the Welsh Marches. It resided here in the gardens until recently as an impressive late 19th century item of statuary. The Warwick Vase The original Warwick Vase, often closely associated with the Albani Vase...
