A pair of small cast iron urns in the classic Medici form. Each has a flared rim cast with a foliate border, a plain bell-shaped body, a gadrooned lower bowl and a short stem on a square plinth foot. They have a soft matte black finish. Both have a drainage hole in the base, so they can be planted with small succulents, moss or bulbs, or left empty as sculptural objects on a shelf, mantel or desk. A good scale for grouping with books and ceramics, or for marking either end of a mantelpiece.
Good vintage condition. Sold as a pair. Have been repainted, minor casting irregularities and small marks to the finish, consistent with age and use.
Dimensions: height 15cm, width 14cm.
Delivery quoted on enquiry, based on location.
