Marbled marble urn in different earthy and orange tones, with gilded bronze applications that decorate the flanks and represent a large acanthus leaf topped with three faces inspired by the three-fronted face of Hecate or Janus, gods that symbolize the transits between the past and the future. Stylistically, the urn oscillates between the Empire and Louis XVI styles.
