Impressive pair of monumental vintage wood pedestals featuring an octagonal column form, stepped plinth bases, and richly carved acanthus leaf appliqués on each panel. Finished in a beautifully timeworn whitewashed surface with layered distressing, these pieces carry the character of old-world architectural fragments reimagined as functional décor.
Their scale and presence make them ideal for flanking an entry, anchoring a fireplace, elevating sculpture, or displaying large planters, urns, or statement lamps. The contrast of carved natural wood motifs against the aged painted finish adds depth and sophistication.
Notably sourced from the home of the heiress to Macy’s, offering a distinctive provenance and collected estate appeal.
