Description

A good quality late 19th century (circa 1890) Grand Tour bronze reduction of 'The Warwick Vase' on marble base after the antique, possibly Italian.

This bronze vase consists of a moulded edge with egg and dart decoration with intertwined handles to either side.

The main body of the vase depicting raised masks of Classical Bacchic Gods (Gods of wine) with grape and vine leaf decoration, with lion pelts and acanthus leaf designs with fluted socle below, all supported on a circular Sienna marble base with bronze leaf decoration.

‘The Warwick vase’ is an ancient Roman marble vase with Bacchic decoration that was discovered at Hadrian's Villa, Tivoli in Italy in around 1771 by Gavin Hamilton, a Scottish painter & antiquarian who also dealt in art in Rome, later sold to The Earl of Warwick where it was displayed in a commission built conservatory at Warwick Castle - the original marble vase is now on display in 'The Burrell Collection' in Scotland.

The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, wealthy European travellers embarked on the Grand Tour, acquiring scaled-down bronze reproductions of classical antiquities. The Warwick Vase, an ancient Roman vessel discovered in 1771, became one of the most frequently cast models due to its celebrated Bacchic symbolism.

These urns were typically cast in bronze using lost-wax or sand-casting methods, often manufactured in separate components before hand-chasing and assembly. Chemical treatments were applied to achieve a patinated surface finish, after which the vessel was mounted onto a turned marble base.

Period pieces feature precise hand-chased relief details, natural oxidisation in the crevices, and smooth wear to the patina on prominent points. Threaded rods and hand-cut nuts visible on the underside of the marble plinth also indicate traditional assembly methods.

A patinated bronze urn functions effectively as a sculptural accent on a fireplace mantelpiece, library bookcase, or console table. Placing the object against a neutral backdrop highlights the silhouette of the handles and the tones of the marble base.

Dust the bronze regularly with a soft, dry brush, avoiding abrasive chemical cleaners that remove historic surface patination. Microcrystalline wax may be applied sparingly to protect the metal, while the marble base should be wiped with a clean, slightly damp cloth.
