Impressive Pair of Overscale Cast Iron Urns

$8,400per set

About

These enormous cast iron urns were removed from the Colgate Estate in Northwestern Connecticut and will make an impressive statement at the entrance of your estate. Very heavy and with entwined snake handles and lotus-form bodies, they have large drain holes and would be magnificent planted with an exuberant arrangement of sweet potato vines, coleus and millet. Please note that there is minor surface rusting around the bottom edges of the urns and spots to the paint here and there, but nothing that negatively impacts their look or functionality. They can be re-painted or sandblasted and powder-coated to your custom specifications for a modest up-charge.
