Lot 499: A Pair of Reconstituted Stone Garden Urns on Pedestal Bases

Live auction will start in __ days and __ hours

Start price: £2

Buyer's Premium:

A pair of garden urns manufactured from reconstituted stone. One urn features a body decorated with a repeating raised diamond lattice or trellis-work pattern. The second urn is decorated with an architectural motif featuring gothic-style arches and points. Both vessels have flared, rounded rims and are supported by short, waisted pedestals terminating in square plinth bases. The construction is typical of 20th-century British garden ornaments. No maker marks are clearly visible, though the designs are characteristic of mid-to-late 20th-century cast stone production.


Condition report:

Both items exhibit significant weathering consistent with long-term outdoor exposure. There is extensive moss and lichen growth across the surfaces, particularly within the recessed decorative elements and around the rims. The stone shows typical age-related pitting and minor surface wear. One urn contains residual soil and dried organic matter.
