About the Item

A gorgeous and rare neoclassical pair of patinated and doré bronze Empire period covered urns with doré bronze cupid masks and foliage scroll doré bronze handles. Each is beautifully cast and patinated in a rich dark black patina. Mounted on the body are fabulous doré bronze mounts of swans, baskets of flowers, acanthus leaves, swirling foliage, and medallions. The doré bronze handles have a scrolling foliage design that attaches at the bottom to two cupid masks. Each aspect of the doré bronze is finely cast, chiseled, chased, matte, and burnished in two-tone gold. The top has a doré bronze acorn finial which is surmounted on an acanthus leaf rim. These would also make a lovely pair of lamps. Provenance: An Important NYC collection. France, circa 1820-1830.
