Fine 19th Century Near-Pair of Regency Tole-Painted Chestnut Urns

About the Item

A FINE NEAR-PAIR OF REGENCY TOLE-PAINTED CHESTNUT URNS WITH LION MASKS Probably Dutch, ca. first half of the 19th century Item # 402YTP08P An incredibly beautiful pair of chestnut urns from the Regency era, these are a "near-pair" with almost identical form, though on close inspection there are subtle variations. Each features a lovely ochre ground color with stenciled decorations throughout and a painted scene on the front and back: a sailboat, a windmill, a farm surrounded by meadows and a building with a tower. They exhibit a rich surface history throughout. Measurements: 12" H x 4 1/4" diameter (base) x 5 1/4" diameter (top) Condition Report: Spots of paint flaking throughout; almost perfectly matched pair, though note slight variation in lion masks, subtle profile differences and some variation in the painted decorations - at a glance they seem a perfect pair. Oxidized and beautifully patinated paint, heavily discolored and worn from centuries of handling.

    VERY FINE PAIR OF ENGLISH SILVERPLATED COBALT GLASS CHESTNUT URNS Marked for Barker-Ellis of Birmingham, England made circa 1912-1931 with maker's mark to underside [seven-branch menorah], signed "England" and impressed "8" along with silversmith's scratched notations Item # 312DPP11Z An exceedingly fine pair of chestnut or candy urns by the renowned silversmithing firm Barker-Ellis of Birmingham, England, the menorah marker's mark was reportedly used by Barker-Ellis starting in 1912 and continued to be in use by the firm through 1931 [see the Smithsonian Museum of American History, acc. no. 1988.0569.07 for a tray of the same marking and documented dates of use]. The present version of the menorah mark is an earlier version of the marking and probably places the pair of urns to circa 1920. The urns feature a carved pineapple finial with exquisitely chiseled and chased leaves over a coved lid, this lifting off to reveal a spacious interior with removable hand-blown cobalt glass...
