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.

Left Column:
Height: 105 cm
Top: 30 x 30 cm
Base: 34 x 34 cm
Right Column:
Height: 109 cm
