AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Exclusive Marble Column with "A Corteccia" Finish
Refined display column in precious marble, characterized by a rare and evocative bark-textured finishing on the shaft. This sculptural technique faithfully reproduces the organic texture of wood, transforming the stone into an element of naturalistic and tactile design with great visual impact.

It is structured on a solid, contoured base and a square upper plane, interspersed with turned rings that mark its classic proportions. The warm tones of the marble, ranging from crema to Siena earth with anthracite veining, enhance the realism of the carved finish. It is a high-class piece of furniture, ideal for highlighting classical busts, bronzes, or botanical elements in sophisticated interiors.

Usage tips: The distinctive 'bark' finish makes it an ideal conversation piece for spaces that blend classic style with natural or eclectic elements.

Conditions: The item is in excellent preserved condition; some signs of wear and the surface bears a patina of time resulting from polishing products once used on the marble, which over time tended to yellow slightly, giving that patina that enriches the depth of the artisanal workmanship.

Dimensions:
Height 97 cm
plate with a diameter of 22 cm
base 25 x 25 cm
Weight 19.7 kg


The column can be disassembled into several parts and will be shipped in a disassembled state with care to preserve its integrity; installation (which is simple) will be the responsibility of the buyer.

Welcome to a fascinating journey into the beating heart of the 20th century, where the objects that animated that era are transformed into custodians of timeless stories, passions and emotions in a journey that combines the elegance of antiques with the unmistakable charm of vintage.
