Pair of Victorian foundry crucibles

An magnificent pair of foundry crucibles with custom made wrought iron stands C.1900.

Made from composite clay & graphite and designed to withstand extremely high temperatures in the furnace before metal casting works. They are a matching pair and show a wonderful array of wear, patina and earthy colours giving them a unique and enchanting look.
They now display incredibly well on a pair of decorative custom made iron stands. They make great planters and are perfectly useable both inside and out.
