Pair of 19th Century French Louis XVI Mantel Urns on Marble Bases

About the Item

Pair of 19th century French Louis XVI mantel urns on marble bases were intended for decorative appeal alone, and feature classic designs inspired by ancient Greek amphora and Romanesque architectural embellishment. Cast from spelter, each has been given a patinaed bronze finish which enhances the detailing from the pineapple finial above, to the norsemen on the scrolled handles, to the heraldic crest at the center, and finally the upraised foliates at the base of the urn. Set upon beautifully veined marble bases that have been raised on feet and festooned with intertwined laurel sprays for a special finishing touch! Circa 1890s Each measures 16.5 H x 7 W x 4.5 D.
