Cast in reconstituted stone (a concrete material) then applied with further decorative textures to appear chiseled, they have gained a wonderful patina from over a century of outdoor weathering and, coupled with Neoclassical formality, they command attention in any setting. The circumference of the wide, shallow urns is defined by an egg & dart motif at the lip and beaded rows where they narrow and taper to the foot. Drainage holes pierce the sides of the bowls to use for planting (or drip irrigation) with an interior depth of 5”. The monumental bases feature a square block widening to a stacked foot on the ground, which differ slightly between them from where they were extracted from the original architecture. We believe these to be in good antique condition considering the age, and any visible signs of wear are captured in the photos. Please view the detailed image gallery for the current condition and message us with any questions. Sold as a pair. Each urn separates into four components for easier transportation and installation.
