AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Exceptional antique column in precious Carrara marble. Its most remarkable feature is the scenic charm created by the natural color of Carrara marble, characterized by numerous distinctive dark gray veins, making it both striking and beautiful in appearance and form.
This highly prized marble, extracted in Italy, has been used since ancient times for the creation of exceptional works of art, sculptures, and architectural details. It is characterized by a white background with dark gray veins and a fine, compact grain that gives it a special scenic effect.

This column features a twisted carved shaft, a double carved central ring, a rich vase-shaped finish carved with acanthus leaves, and a rope-shaped incision on the upper capital. These special details confirm its age and lend it a particular refinement and elegance.

The octagonal base allows for excellent stability and the large square top is comfortable and appreciable.

This column will add a touch of class to your decor, a precious antique jewel where you can display your most important objects, statues, vases, etc.

The column is divisible into nine parts assembled by a metal soul.

Dimensions:
Height 95 cm, width of base and top 24 cm, final vase-shaped circumference 60 cm, stem circumference 30 cm.

Code 191

It will be shipped dismantled, packed, and insured.
