Oakwell Estate Victorian Iron Urn
Product Description
Many local residents and the former owner of the Oakwell Estate worked tirelessly to save the property from being purchased under eminent domain and used to make sport fields for a local school district. Garden Accents was so lucky to have worked with Mr. Bennett to purchase some of the outdoor treasures before he moved from the property.
This regal Victorian iron urn stood under the port cochere at one of the entrance doors to the Oakwell Estate main house. It was beautifully planted and is a larger scale that is worthy of the center of a garden or as a major focal point. The term "perfect patina" is an apt one for this garden ornament.
The Oakwell mansion is exceptional. It is representative of the Gilded Age when industrial giants competed in constructing opulent mansions and fantastic gardens on the Main Line and is filled with Mercer floor tiles. The landscaping of the Oakwell estate is filled with diverse, old, valued trees and shrubs and is surely worth preservation.
