At each side are impressive urns each raised by square Rouge Griotte bases decorated with finely detailed wrap around foliate bands. Above the square central supports are the striking patinated bronze urns with beautifully detailed foliate designs and stunning scrolled ormolu acanthus leaf arms which lead up each side in a superb satin and burnished finish. All original gilt throughout. Urn dimensions: H: 12.25" L: 10.75" D: 7.75".
