This assortment of garden decorative items and furniture comprises a large urn on pedestal, a classical statue, a pair of plant stands, and various accessories. The campana-form urn is manufactured from reconstituted stone, featuring a flared rim and gadrooned body, supported by a separate square-section pedestal base. It retains a small modern adhesive label to the rim. The classical female statue, also in reconstituted stone, is depicted partially draped at the waist and stands upon an integral oval base. The matching pair of cast iron plant stands feature circular tops with openwork casting of grape and vine motifs, supported by scrolling tripod bases. A traditional galvanised steel watering can of long-reach design is present, featuring a fixed cross-handle and a brass-finished plaque stamped GUARANTEED. The collection is completed by a terracotta wall-mounted planter in the form of a classical mask and a cylindrical ceramic umbrella stand decorated with blue foliate sprays on a yellow ground.
Condition report:
All items show weathering consistent with outdoor use. The reconstituted stone urn and statue exhibit heavy moss and lichen growth with significant flaking to old painted finishes. The statue displays surface pitting and erosion. The cast iron plant stands have heavily chipped white paint and visible surface rust, particularly to the legs and joints. The galvanised watering can shows typical oxidation and surface dulling; the rose is currently detached but present and secured by wire. The terracotta mask and ceramic stand show minor surface wear and light abrasions.
