From Swift Current Museum

Accession Number 1971.1.1

Date 1900

Description Tall ornate urn, handle and spout, covered in relief scroll work and cherubs. Not an actual urn as there is a hole the entire way through, perhaps a candle holder shaped like an urn. Broken at neck, mended with a shaft through the body, handle has fallen off. Brought from Norway. May have originally been from a church. Has been in donor's family since c.1900. 1971.1.2 is identical, but unbroken. A cork in the top.
