  • Additional information
  • Description
Epoque: Italy, early 19th century

Material: Alabaster

Dimensions: H. 27 in. (68,5 cm); diam. 19 2/3 in. (50 cm)

Description:

The vases we are offering were created in the early 19th century, at a time when the neoclassical movement took over Europe. Because of their balanced proportions, these vases negate the overpowering feelings conferred by the monumentality of the antique models. Moreover, the crystals trapped within the alabaster bestow glimmering reflections, which are absent from the antique models executed in white marble. Our vases therefore encompass a level of luster greatly appealing to collectors seeking very sought after work of art.
