Description

This pair of marble pedestals are designed to support a work of fine or decorative art, but are impressive works of decoration in their own right.

Rendered in the neoclassical style, the pedestals are of a rectilinear shape, with a tapering shaft. With their refined square tops, the design of the pedestals is reminiscent of the Doric order columns which were common in classical architecture. The pedestals are crafted from a deep red marble, a highly unusual shade for this type of object. The marble features delicate black and white veining over the entire body, with no two sections of the pedestals displaying the same patterning.  

The pedestals stand on top of square platform bases, rendered in black from a resin compound.

Crafted in France in the 19th century, this stunning pair have a simple, uncomplicated design, that would be splendid for the display of a precious artwork or object. With their unusual red tone, they would be sure to add an elegant pop of colour to the appropriate interior space.
