About the Item
Presenting a magnificent pair of oversized 19th-century malachite pedestals with bronze-mounted malachite urns, an extraordinary ensemble that embodies the height of European neoclassical luxury. These stunning display pieces are crafted from richly patterned genuine malachite, prized for its vibrant emerald tones and swirling concentric veining. Each pedestal is composed of three substantial malachite sections, expertly assembled to create an architectural column form measuring 40" high x 12 1/4" wide x 12 1/4" deep. Their commanding scale makes them ideal for grand foyers, galleries, important staircases, or refined classical interiors seeking a dramatic focal point.
Resting atop the pedestals are two exceptional bronze-mounted malachite urns with rams heads, each measuring 28 3/4" high x 14 1/2" wide x 10 1/4" deep. These urns boast finely cast gilt bronze handles, mask mounts, floral garlands, neoclassical borders, and foliate appliqués—details associated with the finest quality 19th-century craftsmanship. The combination of polished malachite and gilt bronze creates a striking contrast, offering richness, depth, and unmistakable opulence.
Malachite pieces of this scale were traditionally commissioned for aristocratic residences, Russian imperial interiors, and high-status European palaces. Their visual weight and jewel-like surfaces make them perfect for elevating any room’s architectural presence.
Condition: As expected with age, the pedestals show minor chips, scratches, and older professional repairs—evidence of their longevity and authenticity. The urns display oxidation to the bronze mounts and light surface scratches, consistent with 19th-century materials. All wear is cosmetic only and does not impact structural integrity.
This rare, museum-worthy pair is ideal for collectors of malachite, neoclassical décor, and 19th-century European luxury furnishings. A breathtaking statement set for the most distinguished interiors.
