A pair of large metal decorative urns combining classical form with an unusually rich, mottled brown finish and contrasting gilt details.
Each urn has a full amphora-form body framed by dramatic sculptural scroll handles, with fluted gilt detailing at the neck and pedestal base. Fixed architectural tops are crowned by ribbed finials, while ornate plinth bases terminate in deeply modeled scroll feet.
The variegated finish across the metal bodies shifts between deep brown, oxblood, and warm coppery tones, creating substantial visual depth against the aged gold-colored mounts.
At 16 inches tall, the pair has commanding scale and strong architectural symmetry. Particularly effective flanking a mantel, large artwork, entry console, or dining room sideboard.
Constructed of metal throughout. The specific metal composition has not been identified. Tops are fixed and the urns are intended as decorative objects rather than functional vessels.
