Pair of 19th-Century French Neoclassical Marble and Gilt Bronze Urns

Offered by: Jacqueline Adams Antiques

Description
This exquisite pair of 19th-century French urns showcases the elegance and craftsmanship of the Neoclassical period, featuring finely carved pink veined marble complemented by gilded bronze ormolu mounts. The urns rest on square gilt bronze bases, adding stability and refinement to their stately presence.

Each urn is adorned with intricate bronze handles in the form of classical female masks, framed by scrolling acanthus leaves that extend gracefully to the lower portion. A delicate beaded bronze trim encircles the upper rim, enhancing the luxurious detailing. The urns are further elevated by their pedestal-shaped marble bases, which taper elegantly before meeting decorative gilt bronze laurel wreath bands and stepped plinths.

With their harmonious blend of fine marble and opulent bronze accents, these urns embody the grandeur of 19th-century French decorative arts. Whether displayed on a console, mantelpiece, or as a striking centerpiece, they bring an air of classical sophistication to any interior.
