Produced by "Ovington's, New York, Chicago," as stamped on the base. The foundry mark reads "Fabrication Francaise, Made in Paris, France." These white metal urns are decorated in low bas relief featuring male and female figures making offerings to ancient gods. Acanthus leaves and Greek key designs also ornament the urns. The scrolled handles alternate into resting goose heads, while the urns are mounted on marble and ebonized and gilt wood stands.

13.5 x 6.5 in.

The Collection of Albert Koonce Harrison, Charlotte, North Carolina

Much of the gilding is lost on the urns and there is some wear to the plinths.
