About the Item
Late 18th century campana shaped carved limestone garden urn with stylised ram heads.
This piece features a refined Classic decoration with acanthus leaf motifs applied to the lid and is flanked by four large ram heads to the rim. The bowl is fluted and gadrooned, reminiscent of radiating flower petals, a style originally developed by the ancient Greeks.
Limestone is composed primarily of the mineral calcite, or calcium carbonate. It displays a wide array of natural hues, from buff to grey. It is easily carved and able to withstand exposure to all weathers. Limestone has the ability to create elegant curves and crisp lines and will hold small detail work. This sculpture displays a wide variety of textures that really brings the stone to life.
