About the Item
19th Century, Pair of Italian Lacquered Bronze Vases
Pair of vases in bronze lacquered with fake porphyry with applications in chiseled and gilded bronze, Rome, late nineteenth century - early twentieth century, Neoclassical style
Measurements: H 79 x diameter 60; H with base cm 99; base cm 30 x 30 x h 4.5
The valuable and particular pair of large vases was made in the Roman area at the end of the nineteenth century - early twentieth century. The vases are in lacquered bronze to simulate the material effect of porphyry, stone used in ancient times for important artifacts intended for imperial residences. Porphyry is a very hard and difficult stone that in this case is simulated to make the vessels more easily transportable and usable. On the sides of the lower convex part of the vases are inserted applications in chiselled bronze and golden-shaped bearded male head that could be referred to Zeus (or Jupiter for the Romans), head of all gods and Olympus, the god of heaven and thunder.
The vases currently rest on a wooden base made in recent times.
The pair of large vases is distinctly decorative and easy to place in any context. It can be placed in the corners of different rooms, such as studios, entrances and lounges, placed on pedestals or above furniture, inserted in bathrooms or used as a pair of flower boxes. They are also suitable for outdoor use.
