Vintage French Faux Finish Marble Column

Offered by: Fireside Antiques

Description
Dimensions: 39 ⅛” H x 15 ¾” W x 15 ¾” D

A piece of sculpture on its own, this 20th century French precast concrete pedestal resembling an architectural column is artfully handpainted in a faux finish marbleized effect that is quite convincing at first glance. The thick, square top surface in faux black marble would elevate sculptural works of art to a safe height, as well as vases or plants. Covering the fluted shaft of the column is the artist’s skillful take on red marble with passionately swirled veins of gray pigment over red-brown, supported by a square base that repeats the black & white technique of the top for visual balance. This creative pedestal design will make an impact in many interiors, at home or in more public spaces that need a visual counterpoint. Please view the detailed images.
