Description

From our Decorative collection, we are pleased French Rouge Marble Urn by Thiébaut Freres. The urn carved from rouge (red) marble with a carved step finial bulbous body and stepped circular plinth base. The urn mounted with two mythical beasts. The first a Amphiptere (winged serpent) and the second a dragon with the two intwined around the tails. The urn is hinged below the finial and plated in Silver throughout. The inside of the lid stamped Thiébaut Freres Fondeurs Paris. The rouge marble urn dates to the late 19th century during the Belle Epoque period circa 1870.

Thiébaut Freres Henri-Léon Thiébaut (1855-1899) was a student to the sculptor Alexandre Lequien (1822-1905). As a bronze-caster, and sculptor, Henri-Léon Thiébaut produced bronze art pieces that he exhibited at the Salon from 1878 to 1898. During the 1889 Paris Universal Exhibition Thiébaut exhibited, the Maison Thiébaut Frères (Thiébaut Brothers) of world renown was in poll position. A quote from the catalogue of the Universal Exhibition about the Thiébaut Brothers reads “the most difficult and ambitious works of art do not frighten them”, later in 1893 during the Chicago Universal Exhibition, their bronzes were described as “wonders of casting, chiselling and patina”. Thiébaut partnered with some of the most influential sculptors of the day, obtaining publishing contracts for their work including the 1850’s purchase of Antoine-Louis Barye’s models of Lion & Lioness from the Debraux foundry, as well as partnerships with David d’Angers, Jean-Alexandre Falguiére, Albert Carrier-Belleuse and Paul Dubois. The Thiébaut Freres foundry was regarded as one of the most important foundries in France and thus their accomplishments were significant, one of their most famous work is the circa 1899 reduction of the Statue of Liberty cast by Thiébaut Freres for installation at the end of Swan Island in view of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. The same year saw the casting of the largest monument in Paris, the Triumph of the Republic by Jules Dalou commissioned for the Place de la Nation and almost entirely manufactured by Thiébaut Freres.
Belle Epoque was a period of French, Belgian and European history, usually considered to begin around 1870 and to end with the outbreak of World War I in 1914.

Cancellations and Returns

Our Terms of sale were designed to treat both Customers and Vendors (including Professional Vendors and Non-Professional Vendors (as defined in the Site Terms)) fairly, in order to make the shopping/selling experience with Vinterior just as exceptional as the items.

To protect our Customers from disappointment or the unexpected, we strongly encourage them to closely inspect item photos, descriptions, and details before purchasing anything on the Site, and then again upon delivery or pickup.

If the Customer is unsure about an item's condition, dimensions, quantity, or description, they can send their questions to the item’s Vendor by clicking on Ask the seller on the listing page of the Site.

Customers shall receive the same level of consumer protection on purchases irrespective of whether they are buying from a Professional Vendor or Non-Professional Vendor.

Should you have any questions regarding your transaction, please contact the Vendor in the first instance.

Can I cancel an order?

If a Customer changes their mind or decides for any other reason that they do not want to purchase the Goods before the Goods have been dispatched, they can cancel the order on the Site and receive a refund.

The right to cancel does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the customer’s specific requirements. If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.

If the Customer cancels an order after an item has already been marked as dispatched for delivery, the costs of delivery are non-refundable.

To cancel the order, the Customer must follow the cancellation procedure on the Site by clicking on Create Cancellation on the order page.

Can I return an item?

Consumers based in the UK and European Union can request to return the Goods on Vinterior up to 14 days after the Goods have been received. Once accepted, the buyer is in charge of the shipment and should organise it as soon as possible (except in the case of a return of faulty Goods).

To initiate a return, the Customer must click on Create a return on the order page on the Site. In the return request, the reason for the return must be included along with photos of any damage of the Goods, if faulty.

As with cancellations, the right to return an item does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the Customer’s specific requirements.

Additionally, the Customer may not return an item for "inaccurate listing” reason when its dimensions or other characteristics do not fit its requirements. We strongly recommend that buyer measures all access areas prior to making a purchase.

If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.

In case of a return, the costs of delivery (i.e., outbound delivery costs when Goods are sent from the Vendor to a Customer) are non-refundable.

The Customer is responsible for organising the return of Goods and for paying delivery costs. Once the item is returned to the Vendor in the same condition, the Vendor will confirm receipt and refund the Customer. If an item is returned to the seller damaged, or in an unsuitable condition, Vinterior will not be able to process the refund and the seller may have to send it back to you (and ask you to cover the delivery costs). All items are inspected on return.

Acting under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, customers may return faulty Goods that are damaged in transportation or the listing on the Site is materially inaccurate, misleading, or misrepresents the Goods. In these cases, the Customer must provide photographic evidence to Vinterior and the Vendor or reject the delivery on arrival.

In case of damage in transit for all items, Vinterior must be informed. Vinterior will then raise an insurance claim on behalf the Vendor with delivery company Proovia. Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.

Please note that vintage items are not sold as new and are likely to show signs of wear and tear. This is not sufficient grounds for a refund.

Vendors may refuse a return of an item if it has been altered by the Customer in any way.

Neither Vinterior nor the Vendors are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
