Pair of Lidded French Garden Urns with Rams Heads and Grape Vines on Pedestals

SOLD

Description

Comprised of three separate pieces of French cast stone, this pair of lidded garden urns features rams’ heads and grapevine motifs. Both urns are topped by a removable lid adorned with curled gadrooned lobes and a finial of plentiful fruit. The urns are embellished by a pair of rams’ heads with long, flowing horns on each side. A ring of foliage can be seen beneath the horns, accompanied by a grapevine swag that emanates from behind the rams. The urns sit on top of a classically shaped pedestal (the third piece of cast stone) festooned with a laurel wreath on all four sides. There is also a cavetto molding near the base that is graced with a foliate motif. They can be displayed in any outside setting, such as flanking a walkway or as simple garden ornaments. The urns could also be used indoors as planters (with the lids removed).

CONDITION: Good condition with minor rubs and losses, color variation. Fleabites in some areas, which is a byproduct of the casting process. If owner does not mortar them into place, shims might need to be used to achieve level
