Description from the seller

Antique Pair of Roman Alabaster Columns in Floral Pattern

Important pair of Roman columns made in flowering alabaster, dating from the second half of the 19th century. The pieces stand out for their classic elegance and for the extraordinary natural veining of the alabaster, characterized by dense marbling in shades of gray and ivory that makes each column unique.

The structure features a cylindrical shaft divided by slender annular moldings, with a sculpted base and upper cap in neoclassical style. The slender proportions and the solidity of the material give them a strong visual presence, making them ideal as pedestals for busts, sculptures, or important works of art.

Bases are worked with concentric profiles and an octagonal plan, while the upper levels are perfectly smooth and ready for display. A decoratively charming ensemble, perfect for classical interiors, galleries, entrances, or reception rooms.

Dimensions:

Left Column:
Height: 105 cm
Top: 30 x 30 cm
Base: 34 x 34 cm

Right Column:
Height: 109 cm
Top: 29 x 29 cm
Base: 33 x 33 cm

Code: QRM5719

For destinations considered difficult or not easily served, we reserve the right to apply an additional shipping surcharge.

Any keys or accessories are not included, unless explicitly indicated in the photos and in the article description.

The items are generally in good condition, compatible with their age. Natural signs of time and use bear witness to the authenticity of the pieces and do not compromise their beauty, form, or structural integrity.

Standard delivery does not include porterage or upstairs delivery. If you wish to add this service, please notify us promptly immediately after purchase; this option is not available for overseas shipments.

For a complete assessment of the item, we invite you to carefully examine the photographs, which are an integral part of the description. This will allow you to fully appreciate authenticity and condition, avoiding any misunderstandings. *
