Pair of English Victorian Cast Iron Garden Urns on Ornamented Bases
A most handsome pair of Victorian cast iron garden urns, raised upon richly cast bases.
The urns are formed in the classical campana style, with bold fluted bodies and an egg-and-dart rim, their bowls ready to hold seasonal planting. Beneath, the associated bases are decorated with scrolling acanthus leaves and flowerheads, their timeworn surfaces lending a softness that sits beautifully against the urns’ slightly brighter painted finish.
Together, urns and bases create a perfectly balanced composition, full of presence and weight. Beautifully proportioned, they are designed to anchor a garden space — whether standing sentinel at an entrance, marking a pathway, or bringing grandeur to a terrace.
Pieces such as these speak of a time when the garden was conceived as an extension of the house, alive with formality, poetry and romance.
Urns 39.5 cm high, bases 35.5 cm wide and deep, 31.5 cm high.
