These large-scale jardinieres are cast in metal, each sculptural vessel formed as an elegant swan with elongated neck, textured featherwork, and open wings that create a generous planting cavity. The graceful silhouettes and opposing orientation make the pair especially decorative when displayed together.
The surfaces retain a beautifully aged patina with traces of original gilt highlighting the feathers and contours, now softened over time to a weathered, timeworn finish. The interior basins show darkened oxidation from use, consistent with age and outdoor exposure, adding to their authentic character.
Sturdy and substantial, these decorative planters can be used indoors or outdoors, ideal for seasonal flowers, herbs, or as sculptural accents along a garden path, terrace, or entryway. The pieces are in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, with expected surface wear throughout.
