Pair of Wide Italian Tazza-Form Limestone Vases on Pedestals

$10,800.00

Description

This pair of wide limestone vases is reminiscent of tazzas in that they are wide and shallow. Hand-carved in Italy, the richness of the carvings is accentuated by the light gray hue of the limestone, which has subtle white accents.

A ring of gadroon adorns the base of each vase, just below a cavetto undercut and above a circular foot with thick moldings. Each vase is supported by a two-piece octagonal pedestal that consists of a tall column above a robust plinth with ogee molding. Our wide Italian tazza-form vases can be used as decorative elements, flanking an entryway or set of stairs. They would also make wonderful planters for any outdoor landscape.

CONDITION: Very good condition. Minor rubs to small areas and slight losses. Drainage hole in each vase allows them to be used as planters. Some stone sections have pieces of foam in between, which will not be used in the final installation (see detailed photos). Limestone can change color with exposure to the elements. Please contact us for photos of the current patina.
