About the Item
A Large 19th Century French Onyx, Silvered, and Gilt-Bronze Vase Attributed to Charpentier & Cie. The vase consists of an onyx body with a flared, slightly everted rim and a tapering form that narrows towards the base. The onyx displays a natural veined pattern with cream, beige, and brown tones. A silvered and gilt-bronze band with a scrolling foliate motif encircles the upper portion, secured to the onyx body. Two gilt-bronze handles extend from the upper section, each terminating in a looped finial with suspended pendant rings. These handles curve outward and attach to the vase’s body through decorative mounts.
The lower section features a sculptural support of two opposing silvered-bronze winged sphinxes with muscular lion bodies, outstretched wings, and bearded male faces adorned with headdresses. Their wings extend upward, framing the central portion of the vase. These figures are joined at their backs by a foliate bronze mount that extends upward along the onyx body. The sphinxes rest on an ornate gilt-bronze base with four scrolling feet featuring acanthus leaves, shell motifs, and circular medallions. The base is further adorned with additional foliate elements, and its structural framework integrates with the sphinx figures, supporting the onyx vessel above.

A Monumental 18/19th C. French Ormolu Mounted Grey Marble Covered Urn w/ Handles
Located in New York, NY
A Monumental Late 1700's/Early 1800's French Ormolu Mounted Marble Covered Urn
Presenting an extraordinary Monumental 18/19th Century French Ormolu Mounted Marble Covered Urn. Crafted with meticulous precision, this exquisite urn showcases a captivating blend of materials and intricate ornamentation.
The urn features a splendid mid-toned grey uniformly patterned marble, skillfully carved into a rounded bulb. Both the lid and body of the urn gracefully mimic the contours of an egg, lending an harmonious and organic appeal to the overall design. Adorning the base of the body are carved ormolu ferns, beautifully encircling the bottom of the belly as it descends to a marble pedestal that is ringed at the bottom with an ormolu wreath resting atop a stunning cubic stepped deep-green marble plinth.
Crowning the urn is a pineapple finial, exquisitely crafted from ormolu bronze. Encircling the base of this handle, one can admire a delicate ring of foliate ormolu bronze, adding a touch of sophistication to the composition. The handles on either side of the urn are a delightful departure from the conventional, boasting ribbed, angled, and bent-square ormolu designs. This unexpected detail adds a refreshing and distinctive element to the overall aesthetic.
To further enhance its grandeur, the grey marble urn is adorned with ornate and delicate foliate ormolu bronze scrolls. These intricate scrolls gracefully meander along the belly of the urn, lending a sense of opulence and refinement to the piece.
In terms of size, this Monumental 18/19th Century French Ormolu Mounted Marble Covered Urn commands attention with its substantial proportions. Standing tall and proud, its dimensions convey magnificence and presence, truly befitting its status as a significant antique artifact...
