Pair Monumental French Cast Chateau Urns, “Vases du Printemps”
About the Item
These huge urns, cast in France from crushed stones and cement measure an astounding 63 inches tall. They are nearly the same dimension as the original “Vase du Printemps” from which they are based upon. The vase was part of a set of four designed for Château de Choisy in the 1740s. However, none of the vases were ever sent to Choisy. Some were passed about to other Chateaux and museums, including the MET in New York. The vase on which ours was based splits it’s time between Le Louvre Museum in Paris and Château Malmaison.
These vases at 5 feet 3 inches high and will make a striking visual impression in any garden or park setting. They are finished in an elegant, creamy limestone color, not too dissimilar from the present day color of the marble of the originals. They are decorated with rams heads at each side, thick garlands of roses, and delicate female mascarons. Approximate weight: 1,800 lbs each.

View AllPair of Large French Cast Garden Vases after the Models of Jean-Baptiste Pigalle
By Jean-Baptiste Pigalle
Located in Dallas, TX
After the original 18th century garden vases, entitled Autumn, by Jean-Baptiste Pigalle, this pair of large cast garden vases are in the classic krater form. A sprawling scene with mascarons, rams’ heads, and grapevines are set between egg and dart molding and gadrooned lobes. Made with a mixture of crushed stone and cement (known as reconstituted stone), the tall vases were imbued with a cream coloring agent during the casting process. Each vase is supported by a thick rectangular plinth beneath a tapering neck adorned with geometric motifs and Vitruvian waves filled with flowers. These impressive garden vases will make a wonderful statement, inside or outdoors.
Originally part of a set of four vases depicting the seasons of Autumn and Spring, which were designed for the Chateau de Choisy by Ange-Jacques...
