Description from the seller
Pair of neoclassical columns in wood and composite - 23 kg each.
An elegant pair of Neoclassical-style decorative columns, perfect for displaying busts, sculptures, or important vases. These furnishing elements combine the majesty of classical architecture with a patinated ivory finish, enriched with gilded friezes that enhance their volumes and proportions.
The structure is expertly crafted with a combination of materials: the central shaft is made of lightweight, hollow wood, while the capitals and bases are made of a solid, heavy composite material. This construction technique maintains a monumental aesthetic while ensuring exceptional stability thanks to the concentration of weight at the ends.
Materials: Wood (frame) and composite material (base and capital).
Decoration: Cream-colored finish with garland friezes and acanthus leaves in pure/patinated gold.
Weight and dimensions: Approximately 23 kg per single column, for a total of 46 kg. Height 78 cm, top and base 28 x 28 cm
Dimensions: Ideal for creating symmetry in an entrance hall or reception room.
Conditions
The item is in good overall condition, with a pleasant patina. The structure is solid and extremely stable. There are small signs of wear and minor flaws in the surface finish, which do not detract from its aesthetics but rather enhance its decorative character and antique feel.
