Bidding ended. Lot is unsold.
The urns, 37.5cm high; 164cm high overall
Condition report:
The urns have some age, from the 20th Century and not made recently.
A few small nibbles, chips and losses, commensurate with use and age.
Notably chips to corners of the plinth base, together with further small chips to the edges of the other connecting parts. A larger chip to the base of one column on the edge of the socle bottom (piece attached).
Some old repairs, notable to the top of the top of the socle, see image and a further few odd repairs.
The urn bowls are resting on screw bases and all elements come apart easily. See images.
