Full Details for Lot 554

Sale 2205 Lot 554

Pair of American Victorian Cast Iron Garden Urns on Pedestals

ca. 1900, with beaded rims and scroll-molded sides, set with scrolled handles, the bases molded with acanthus leaves and supported on pylon-form pedestals, decorated with panels of scrollwork and raised on ogee-molded bases.
h. 47-1/2", w. 27", dia. 21"

Estimate $1,000-1,500

**In good "as found" condition. Each is heavily over-painted. The bases are sturdy and stable. One urn is not very snug on the base, but weight/soil in the planter should stabilize it. There is a raised area on one base that may be a weld/repair beneath the paint. The urns are of "self-draining" design. One is missing the false bottom that covers the lower reservoir/well. One has a valve to drain the reservoir that appears to be frozen/seized.

Sold for $1,500
