Monumental pair of solid bronze urns on swan bases — each one stands 71 inches tall, 27 inches wide, 23 inches deep. Renaissance Revival style, probably 20th century, patinated cast bronze. Each urn has a flared molded rim and tall scrolling handles above a richly ornamented body — classical masks, large rosettes, foliate scrolls. Each urn rises on a sculptural pedestal formed by clustered swans with elongated necks, above an acanthus-decorated support and stepped polygonal base. Brown patina with lighter highlights. These were Lot 74 in Stevens Auction Company's Haunted Estates sale, estimated $6,000–$8,000. New monumental bronze urns this size retail $10,000+ each. Condition: scattered rubbing and variations in the patina, with some green oxidation around the bases — see photos. Very heavy, solid bronze. Local pickup, and we can help load.
