Part of $2.8 Million McLean Mansion Luxury Downsizing Auction (timed auction by Prime Auction Solutions)

Status: No sale

A lush, full Boston fern (Nephrolepis exaltata) is presented in a substantial cast stone urn-form planter, forming a striking decorative composition ideal for entryways, patios, or conservatory settings. The planter itself is a noteworthy piece in its own right, cast in a sandy-toned composite stone with a classically inspired form featuring a rounded body, stepped pedestal base, and richly detailed bas-relief ornamentation. Decorative motifs include a bold Greek key band encircling the upper register, a sculpted grape cluster with trailing vine leaves on the body, and ribbed detailing on the base. The fern's cascading fronds arch dramatically over the vessel's rim, creating abundant volume. Size: 17 x 17 x 23".
