Made in England in the nineteenth century, this pair of cast-iron garden urns has twin scrolled handles and is finished in antique white paint. Each urn has a traditional decorative rim and a fluted bowl, and stands on a square base. Cast iron was a favoured material for Victorian garden ornament, allowing crisp decorative detail and durability for outdoor use. The scrolled handles and fluted bowls give the urns a classical character, while the white painted finish suits a garden or terrace setting. The condition is reported as good. As a matched pair, the urns suit symmetrical placement flanking an entrance, steps, or path, or use as planters on a terrace. They can be planted with seasonal flowers or trailing greenery, or displayed as architectural ornament. Their classical form and period material suit both traditional and transitional garden schemes, where they serve as planted or ornamental focal points.
