Large carved ornamental urns of this type, executed in marble, granite, porphyry or other hardstones became fashionable during the Seventeenth century, such as the examples illustrated by Alvar Gonzalez-Palacios, 'Il tempio del Gusto', 1984, p 147 and p 177 which represent urns conserved in the Museo del Prado, the Vatican and the Musée du Louvre, amongst others. They enjoyed a renaissance in popularity for the stylised interiors of the 1920s.
