Antique Cast Iron Urn English Classically Styled Planter, Victorian 19th Century

Description
This 19th-century English cast iron urn showcases a rich, brownish-gold patina, the result of time-worn rust that enhances its antique appeal. With its classical proportions, fluted body, and wide opening, it reflects the refined garden aesthetics of the Victorian era, when such urns were favored for their sculptural beauty. Unlike earlier stone vessels, cast iron allowed for intricate yet durable designs, accessible to a growing middle class. Victorian gardeners embraced urns not only as planters but as status symbols, echoing the grandeur of ancient Rome while speaking to the values of progress and cultivation. This piece brings with it a legacy of English garden history—where nature and art were thoughtfully intertwined. Wear consistent with age and use. 21.5"dia x 17"h
