About the Item

Discover the timeless elegance of this antique gilt bronze-mounted urn by renowned French maker Jacob Petit, dating back to the mid-19th century. A masterpiece of craftsmanship and design, this decorative urn is both a statement of luxury and a testament to Petit’s artistic legacy. Created by one of the most celebrated French porcelain makers of the 19th century, this urn embodies the opulence and refinement of the era. It bears the maker's mark, confirming its authenticity and provenance. The classic oviform silhouette is enhanced by a flaring neck and gracefully curved gilt bronze-mounted handles, exuding sophistication. The deep blue ground serves as a striking backdrop, highlighting the intricately painted floral motifs. The urn features a meticulously rendered still-life bouquet of flowers and foliage, brought to life in vibrant hues of white, purple, pink, orange, and green. Gilt bronze mounts add an extra layer of luxury, with their warm golden tones perfectly complementing the vibrant porcelain. It stands about 20 1/2 inches height by 11 1/2 inches diameter. This urn is in excellent antique condition, free from chips, cracks, or repairs. The gilt details and painted surfaces remain vibrant, with minor wear consistent with age, further enhancing its charm and authenticity.
