Description

Very large vintage urn on stand | Mia

A stunning vintage urn. Originally used for storing olive oil, these urns are now the perfect vintage home or garden accessory.

Most commonly seen adorning the steps and patios of Mediterranean homes. They look beautiful and very sculptural completely empty inside the home but can also be used outdoors planted with olive trees or trailing plants.

Full of character, these uniquely original pots would sit perfectly on the floor and filled with your favourite stems and branches – or left completely empty for maximum impact.

Due to the age of this item, the surface of pots such as this one can be textured, pitted and flaky with loose paintwork. Traces of white residue sometimes remain where they have been previously painted. Originally used to store liquids, traces of olive oil are often evident inside the pots.

Please expect a vintage imperfect condition. Each pot is handmade and features fabulous rustic earthy tones. Delightfully imperfect, these pots are soft, smooth and tactile to the touch. These distinctive ancient pots have imperfections aplenty, so please embrace their individuality and beauty and expect historic chips, cracks and repairs.

Please note that we recommend protecting from frost during the winter months if used in the garden.

Please note that this urn is supplied with a stand to aid stability – therefore please refer to the pictures for details
