Ces vases asymétriques sont à rapprocher d’une gravure représentant la place Stanislas. La place Royale de Nancy et ses annexes ont été de tout temps considéré comme un chef d’œuvre de l’architecture urbaine dont la conception et la réalisation sont dues au génie d’Emmanuel Héré, architecte de la cour de Stanislas Leszczynski, ancien roi de Pologne et beau-père de Louis XV, qui fut fait duc de Lorraine dans les années 1730. Héré a été assisté par les plus grands sculpteurs de l'époque, tels que : Barthélemy Guibal, Dieudonné Pierre, Louis Lenoir, Joseph Belcamp et Louis Menuet.
