Antique Hand Carved Gothic Column Stand with Saint Luke, Mark & John Sculptures

About the Item

One of a kind and meaningful, Gothic Revival pedestal / planter / candle holder. Finding unique antiques that are unlike anything we ever saw always makes us feel grateful. When we first saw this large, entirely handcrafted and handcarved column we thought it was a church pedestal for displaying a saint sculpture on top. However, when we noticed the open top with the zinc, removable liner inside, we realized this was in fact a Gothic Revival plant stand with a possibility to also have a sculpture on display in the middle section. Thanks to the zinc liner this beautiful workmanship antique can also be used as a candle stand (as shown in some of our photos), creating a marvelous atmosphere with the burning candles behind the Gothic carvings around the hexagonal top. At the base of this unique stand are three handcarved sculptures of a winged bull (symbolizing Saint Luke), a winged lion (for Saint Mark and a winged Eagle (for Saint John). Between the Gothic top and base are three hand carved plaques, each depicting a Classical waternymph. This relief structure and design is after the panels from the important marble fountain from the Renaissance period in Paris called the 'fontaine des innocents' by French sculptor Jean Goujon in 1550. The original panels have been in Louvre museum since 1824. In one of our images we have placed a gilt wooden antique sculpture in the middle section, just to give you an idea what the open space can be used for. This unique antique is hand-carved all around which also makes it a great center piece in a large entrance or in any circular space. This unique, stylish and meaningful Gothic stand from circa 1890 will never fail to impress and anyone with an eye for rare and handcrafted antiques will want to stop, study and touch it. Also, because they don't make 'em like this anymore. Our price for this ready to use and unique antique even includes perfect packing (in a custom made crate) and also worldwide shipping from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 workdays. Maximum height x diameter of the base: 42.9 x 21.6 inches. Maximum diameter of the top: 17.7 inches. Diameter of the opening atop: 12.6 inches. Weight: 51 pounds lbs or 23 kilogram.
