Set of four bronze ornamental columns, Greek-inspired, dating to the late 19th or early 20th century, with two gilt and two silvered finishes, each about 7.5 cm high and 2.5 cm in diameter, total weight approximately 780 g; unsigned and in good condition.
Description from the seller
Original set of four ornamental bronze cast columns, shaped like small classical Greek-inspired columns. They feature vertically fluted shafts, circular molded bases, and top capitals decorated with vegetal motifs and volutes. Greece. Late 19th century.
The four pieces are identical and form a set, presenting two units with gold finish and two with silver finish. The bottom part is hollow, as seen in the photographs, a feature compatible with pieces made by casting.
Due to its ornamental repertoire, based on classical architectural forms, and its nature as a small decorative bronze object, the set can be stylistically attributed to the taste of the Grand Tour, a tradition linked to the European diffusion of reproductions and objects inspired by Classical Antiquity.
The design follows classical architectural models, with clear inspiration from Greco-Roman column and capital traditions. This type of repertoire was widely used in historicist furniture and decorative objects.
Brand: No visible brand.
Material: Cast bronze.
Technique: Casting and subsequent finishing/patination.
Finish: Two pieces gilded and two silvered, with patina, wear, and surface alterations typical of conservation.
Style: Classical / Neoclassical / Historicist, inspired by Greek models.
Era: Late 19th century or first half of the 20th century.
Dimensions: 7.5 cm height × approximately 2.5 cm maximum diameter per piece.
Weight: 195 g per piece; approximately 780 g for the set.
Condition: Generally good, with signs of use and conservation. They show small scratches, wear, loss and alteration of the gold and silver finishes, as well as patina and some areas of greenish superficial oxidation. No structural breaks observed. They retain their shape and decoration in full.

Shipping: Sent via InPost, UPS, or Correos, depending on the destination country.
