Pair Of Cast Iron Medici Vases green patina
About the Item
Crafted in cast iron with an exquisite aged green patina, this exceptional pair of Médicis vases stands an impressive 110 cm tall and 71 cm wide. Their noble proportions and timeworn beauty make them a striking statement piece for any grand garden or estate. Resting on finely carved stone bases, these vases are composed of two parts, securely fastened with metal rods for stability.
Inspired by the classical elegance of ancient urns, the Médicis vase became a hallmark of French formal gardens, adorning the most prestigious estates from the 17th century onward. Originally popularized during the Renaissance, these vases symbolized refinement, balance, and grandeur, seamlessly integrating art with nature. Their presence in royal gardens, including Versailles, solidified their status as an enduring icon of classical landscaping. Today, this remarkable pair embodies that rich heritage, offering a timeless touch of aristocratic charm to any outdoor setting.
