Pair of Pots Au Feu Finials
su-1153
A very rare pair of pot-à-feu finial urns, dating to the late 19th century and hand-carved from limestone. These sculptural garden ornaments show a beautifully aged patina, with wear consistent with age and use.
Historically, pot-à-feu urns were emblematic features of Baroque architecture, traditionally placed atop important façades, balustrades, churches, and abbeys. Notable examples can be seen at L’Abbaye de Parc in Louvain, where similar finials crown the historic architecture, underscoring their association with classical European design and grand estates.
