Description from the seller
Pair of 17th-century polychrome wooden architectural columns – 62.5 cm – Antique church interior elements, southern Europe
description:
A beautiful pair of carved wooden architectural columns dating to the 17th century. Originally part of an ecclesiastical interior, likely from an altar or architectural framework.
The columns preserve traces of original polychromy and gilding, giving them a wonderful historic character and presence. The wood displays a rich patina acquired over centuries. One column has a small loss at the corner of the capital, consistent with age and use (see photos).
These pieces make striking decorative accents—perfect for interior design, framing artwork, or as sculptural objects on their own.
From a Belgian private collection.

• Width: approx. 8.5 cm (at the base/capital)

Secure professional packaging. Worldwide shipping with track & trace.
