About the Item

This evocative pair of French pewter vases was crafted circa 1860 and reflects the Romantic era’s fascination with nature and allegory. Standing 18.5 inches high and measuring 9 inches in diameter, each vase features richly textured decoration in low relief, including berry-laden vines, blossoms, and swooping birds. A fully sculpted young woman in classical attire sits playfully on the rim of each vase, adding dynamic character and charm. The pewter has developed a soft, aged patina that contrasts beautifully with the deep red marble bases. Removable pewter liners are included, making the pair suitable for floral use as well as display. Minor wear and a few small chips to the marble bases are consistent with age and do not detract from their visual impact. An enchanting and rare pair of 19th-century French vases, ideal for flanking a mantel, sideboard, or as centerpiece accents.
