Stunning Gilt Bronze Vases with Flowers, Possibly Italian from the 19th Century

About the Item

These impressive vases, likely of Italian origin and dating back to the 19th century, are true artistic treasures. Resting on bases of Algerian onyx, these Greek-style bronze vases boast handles adorned with the busts of two Greek philosophers. Each flower and leaf, with striking realism, is meticulously chiseled to reproduce nature with astonishing precision, with every vein and fold carefully rendered. The delicately depicted insect on one of the vases likely carries symbolic significance, in harmony with the selected plant species for the composition. These remarkable pieces are in excellent condition and measure 70x40x30 cm, making them outstanding testimonies to the craftsmanship and artistic refinement of the era. These unique vases would make a spectacular addition to any art collection, or they could serve as the centerpiece of an elegant and sophisticated interior decoration scheme.
