About the Item
Step into the grandeur of the 19th century with this remarkable Italian majolica decorative centerpiece, boasting a commanding presence and exquisite artistic detail. The exterior of this vase/urn is adorned with hand-painted scenes depicting soldiers in combat, rendered in vibrant hues of blue, yellow, white, black, and gray. Each scene is meticulously crafted, capturing the drama and intensity of historical warfare.
Adding to its majestic allure, the centerpiece is adorned with two double snake side handles, symbolizing power and protection in ancient mythology. The urn shape gracefully rests on a round base, enhancing its stability and visual appeal.
