Weathered Stone Garden Urn with Finial Lid

This item is a decorative lidded urn, likely intended for garden or outdoor use, constructed from a light-colored, possibly cast stone or concrete material. Its overall form is classic, featuring a footed base, a fluted or paneled body, and a distinct lid topped with a tiered finial. The primary color appears to be a muted off-white or light grey, characteristic of aged stone. The most prominent condition issue is extensive crazing and crackling across the entire surface of both the body and the lid, suggesting either a decorative finish simulating age or significant exposure to environmental elements, including freeze-thaw cycles if concrete. There are also darker spots and possible biological growth (algae or lichen) indicating outdoor exposure. The construction appears to be molded, with visible seams or mold lines not immediately discernible due to the surface texture and cracking. The base is sturdy, suggesting it's designed to be freestanding. The finial comprises a series of diminishing, stacked circular and tapered elements, culminating in a small sphere at the very top. The lid fits snugly into the mouth of the urn. While no specific maker's marks or signatures are visible in the provided image, the style hints at a classical or neoclassical influence, and its aged appearance could be intentional, contributing to its rustic charm. Given its material and weathering, it is likely from the mid-20th century or later, designed to evoke an older aesthetic.
