Pair of Columns in Carved Wood, 17th Century

About the Item

Each one shows a lower part decorated in relief with vases joined by ribbons and a grooved shaft divided into two areas and has a composite capital. Although the motifs are of classical tradition, the strength of the reliefs and the lines of the columns unite the pair with Spanish Baroque examples of the seventeenth century." Size: 17 x 17 x 106 cms. Weight is merely orientative.
