Description

The ormolu mounted ebonised wood pedestals are wrought to resemble truncated classical columns. Each pedestal sits on a cylindrical ebonised wood base, set to the top edge with ormolu beading. The unfluted shaft of each columnar pedestal features a series of ornate acanthus-leaf form motifs along the bottom, while the top is draped with detailed foliate swags. Each stand culminates in a flat circular top encompassed by an ormolu foliate wreath.
