Decorative pair of Rococo style lidded urns featuring scrolling handles, floral swags and classical detailing throughout. Finished in a rich gilt tone with deep red enamelled bodies, these pieces are fully metal constructed, likely gilt brass or spelter with applied decorative elements. The lids are fixed in place and do not remove, indicating they were intended as decorative objects rather than functional vessels. The forms reference 18th century French Rococo ornament, though these examples are later decorative pieces rather than period antiques, likely produced mid to late 20th century in the grand European revival style. Heavy in feel with good detailing to the cast work, including foliate mounts, swag chains and pedestal bases. Ideal for use as mantel garniture, console styling, bookcase display or as dramatic statement pieces flanking an entry or fireplace. Sold as a pair.
