Pair of large ornamental cast iron Medici urns, late 19th century. From France, they feature a spectacular bottle-green patina and a slightly cracked finish, naturally acquired over decades. Pieces with a strong presence that bring an air of timeless elegance.
Inspired by classical antiquity models, these types of urns were used in gardens and terraces of aristocratic and bourgeois homes, where they served as planters or sculptural elements that organized outdoor spaces.
The marks of time are part of their beauty.
The piece is in good condition, having gracefully withstood the test of time. Like all antique pieces, it may show slight signs of use, patina, or small irregularities inherent to its history, features that enhance its authenticity and make it a unique object.
Measurements: 57 cm high x 44 cm diameter.
