A. Durenne
Antoine Durenne was an internationally renowned French art founder. He attended École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in 1842. Durenne purchased a small foundry in Sommevoire, near the Val d'Osne, Haute-Marne, France and established The Durenne firm. By the 60s, numerous examples of bas-reliefs, fountains, statues and vases were being produced, and the firm began exhibiting various exhibitions, including the 1862 and 1867 International Exhibitions in Paris. Durenne was a founding member of the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs. In 1888, the foundry acquired the address of S.A.d.F. du Val d'Osne, 26 Rue du Faubourg Poissonnière, Paris.

Thanks to their impressive scale and aged, ancient look, this pair of antique vases make a magnificent feature in any setting, instilling a space with grandeur and period French opulence.
