Molded Terra Cotta Ornamental Mortar With Renaissance Decor - 19th Century
Elegant decorative mortar in molded terra cotta, of circular form, resting on four important corner projections adorned with stylized leaves. The body is enriched with relief decoration inspired by Renaissance vocabulary, composed of foliage, flowers and mascarons arranged in a frieze all around.
The quality of the modeling and the richness of the ornamentation evoke historicist decorative productions of the 19th century, heavily influenced by French and Italian Renaissance forms. The object has a beautiful natural ochre patina and retains its original antique appearance.
More decorative than utilitarian, this mortar could take its place in a cabinet of curiosities, a collection of objets d'art or serve as an element of interior architecture.
