Bidding ended. Lot has been sold.
Circa 1900, the urn modelled with fruiting grapevines overall, with waisted stem; the cylindrical and sectional pedestal with conforming carved vine, on a circular foot
CONDITION:
There are knocks and losses to the foliate extremities in places overall. Also naturally occurring faults/cracks within the alabaster (which seem to be perfectly stable). A section of shaft appears to be missing altogether -the uppermost part.
