A pair of circa 1900 antique onyx urns, 46 cm high, with gilded-bronze ornamentation in the Louis XVI style.
Description from the seller
Beautiful and impressive pair of antique decorative urns (cassolettes), made of onyx and richly adorned with refined gilt metal ornaments, presumably bronze (ormolu).
These elegant urns are distinguished by their classical design, graceful garlands, finely crafted handles and detailed decorative elements.
Thanks to their imposing size and combined weight of approximately 30 kg, these urns are particularly well suited as decorative centrepieces on a classic mantelpiece, console table, sideboard or in a stylish interior.
This is a matching pair from a private collection of antiques and decorative art objects.
