Add a layer of timeless elegance and European grandeur to your space with this captivating pair of vintage classical toleware urns. Crafted with a classic urn form, each piece features a deep matte black ground beautifully accented by hand-painted gilt foliate scrolling, laurels, and fine decorative borders.
The body of each urn features two distinct decorative faces:
Front: A painted oval medallion depicts a classical landscape complete with ancient architectural ruins, columns, arches, and figures, framed by stylized gilt palm fronds and floral scrolls.
Reverse: A neoclassical motif featuring a game bird and quiver of arrows bound by flowing ribbons and laurel branches.
Flanking the sides of each urn are sculptural, high-relief lion head masks crafted in a burnished antique gold tone, holding movable drop-ring handles. The urns rest on flared pedestals with matching gilt laurel leaves and are topped with fitted, removable conical lids crowned by pinecone finials.
Perfect for styling on a mantelpiece, sideboard, entry console, or within a bookcase, these urns bring a classic grand tour aesthetic to traditional, eclectic, or Regency-inspired interiors.
