Description from the seller
Antique Pair of Roman alabaster Columns with Floral Veining
Important pair of Roman columns made in flowering alabaster, dating from the second half of the 19th century. The elements stand out for their classical elegance and for the extraordinary natural veining of the alabaster, characterized by dense marbling in shades of gray and ivory that make each column unique.
The structure features a cylindrical shaft divided by thin ring moldings, with base and upper tray shaped and molded in the neoclassical style. The slender proportions and the solidity of the material give great visual impact, making them ideal as pedestals for busts, sculptures, or important works of art.
The bases are worked with concentric profiles and an octagonal plan, while the upper platforms are perfectly smooth and ready for display use. A decoratively captivating ensemble, perfect for classical interiors, galleries, entrances, or reception rooms.

Left column:
Height: 105 cm
Platform: 30 x 30 cm
Base: 34 x 34 cm
Right column:
