An Impressive Pair of Ormolu Mounted Majolica Urns

19th century, Continental, having tall lion mounted handles terminating in classical masks, the front of each urn is decorated with a full-bodied putto, a theme repeated in the wide majolica band, raised on a pedestal relief decorated with shields and wreaths.

28 x 11 in.

The metal, once gilded, shows only remnants present; joinery of the urn parts slightly loose.
