The background is comprised of dark blues. The two Geisha scenes feature multi-colored subjects against a backdrop of light yellows and greens. Orange flowers and goldfish adorn the rim and interior. There is a modest - but appropriate - amount of shiny gold trim that sets everything off just right. A standalone statement piece that goes anywhere with anything.

The urn is 16” OD at the top, 12 1/4” ID inside the rim, with an internal depth of 12” and an external height of 13”. The urn weighs about 26 lbs. The perfectly fitting stand is also solid and substantial - dark brown color, matte finish, distressed…very appropriate. Together, the urn/stand measure 16” at the widest point with a height of 23 1/4”.

The set is gorgeous on its own but could also serve as the perfect accent for your favorite silk plant. The urn and stand were designed and finished to present as a vintage period pieces. They are both in excellent condition. Any distressing is intentional, with a few minor imperfections consistent with age and history. See less
