AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A beautiful, tall Greek column and an elegant, striking classical Caryatid sculpture / pedestal, inspired by classical Greek and Roman architecture.
This detailed piece features a draped female figure (Caryatid) that serves as a carrying column with a decorative capital on her head. Executed with refined details in the folds of the garment, the hair structure, and the facial expression. The warm alabaster/stone-like color tone gives it a timeless aesthetic, making it an ideal decorative stand for plants, busts, or as a standalone architectural focal point in both classical and modern interiors.
- Style: Classical / Neoclassical / Hellenistic
- Object: Caryatid Column / Pedestal / Plinth
- Material: Gypsum / Composite / Cast stone (adjust to exact material)
- Dimensions: 23 cm x 17 cm x 98 cm.
- Condition: Used. There is a visible crack at the neck and a small piece of material is missing there (see the detailed photos for an accurate representation of the condition). Furthermore, the statue shows normal, age-related light signs of use and a nice patina.
The photos are part of the description (what you see is what you get).
Pickup only: Due to the large size and the fragility of this object, it cannot be shipped. The buyer must pick up the statue themselves.
