Cast Iron Urns For Sale on 1stDibs

An assortment of cast iron urns is available at 1stDibs. Each of these unique cast iron urns was constructed with extraordinary care, often using metal, iron and paint. Cast iron urns have been made for many years, and versions that date back to the 18th Century alongside those produced as recently as the 21st Century. Cast iron urns are generally popular furniture pieces, but neoclassical, Victorian and Art Deco styles are often sought at 1stDibs. Large cast iron urns can prove too imposing for some spaces, so the smaller cast iron urns available at 1stDibs — each spanning 3 inches in width — may make for a better choice. There have been many well-made cast iron urns over the years, but those made by Alfred Corneau, J.W. Fiske Company and Kramer Brothers are often thought to be among the most beautiful.

How Much are Cast Iron Urns?

Prices for cast iron urns can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — at 1stDibs, cast iron urns begin at $195 and can go as high as $264,115, while the average can fetch as much as $3,002.

Finding the Right Building And Garden Elements for You

Choosing the right antique or vintage building and garden elements can prove pivotal when you’re working to beautify any room in your home or just put the finishing touches on a garden or other outdoor area.

It takes time and effort to improve your outdoor space or merely to bring an air of tranquility to an indoor area set aside for private relaxation or gathering with friends. The good news is that 1stDibs can help.

To introduce a sense of timelessness to a back patio or interior common area, choose cast-stone statues or sculptural busts for a dose of drama or select ornate architectural elements such as corbels, plaques or panels made of marble or iron. Elsewhere, find a focal point in your living room and create a “feature wall” by bringing pops of color into a corner with handmade antique ceramic tiles.

It helps when design changes like these have a practical upside too.

Victorian cast-iron stair treads hearken back to a time when adding decorative details to your property was a priority. While lending an attractive appearance to an exterior staircase, these safeguards render the steps slip-resistant for those coming and going. And as one good stylistic choice usually leads to another, pairing your sophisticated treads with a coupling of 19th-century hand-forged andirons would be a thoughtful, durable touch for any courtyard or comfortable lounge space, be they intended for an indoor fireplace or a patio firepit.

Where the garden is concerned, any sophisticated garden ornaments you select should work with nature, not against it. Wrought-iron garden gates will simply refuse to be relegated to the background. Instead, they’ll draw attention to your painstakingly sculpted hedges and colorful flora. When paired with a sparse arrangement of other tasteful additions, such as a stone planter, garden stool or other welcoming pieces of outdoor seating, the effect can be transformative.

On 1stDibs, find a sprawling collection of antique garden furniture and architectural elements that meet every need. Our offerings include everything from sculptural bathroom fixtures to flooring ideas to pedestals and columns designed in a variety of styles and much more.
