They feature a classic footed design with square bases, tall lids topped with gold-painted finials, and beautifully applied gold detailing.

Each urn is adorned with delicate swag garlands and laurel motifs, a common theme in neoclassical decorative arts, emphasizing symmetry and classical ornament. The overall color palette is refined—primarily white with hand-painted gold accents.

The underside is marked “Italy”, with a hand-painted signature or maker’s mark (though the exact name is unclear in the photo), confirming their Italian origin.

These would typically be used purely for decoration, often on a mantel, console table, or within a formal dining or living space. See less
