Antique Buff Terracotta Garden Obelisk

About the Item

This mid-late 19th century antique garden obelisk brings prestige and grandeur to any outdoor setting. Made in buff terracotta, it has an almost golden tone with one side unusually painted with simulated marble effect finish. The striking obelisk sits upon a terracotta plinth decorated on all four sides with a wreath. There is no makers mark, but this design is akin to the styles of English makers Blanchard or Blashfield.

Dedon "Obelisk" Stacking Garden Furniture (x 2)
By DEDON, Frank Ligthart
Located in Hanover, MA
The Obelisk designed by Frank Ligthart for Dedon, 2008. No longer in production. Inspired by the Neolithic menhirs of Carnac in the French region of Brittany it is composed of two pairs of matching high- and low-back lounge chairs and a conical table. The base of the table supports all the chairs when stacked into its sculptural shape for storage. We also have available separately a near complete additional Obelisk consisting of three of the S chairs and one M chair plus the table. Image 9 shows the complete Obelisk plus the spare table and chairs. Best of both worlds is to have the spare set for seating together with the complete Obelisk as sculpture, until additional seating is required. Image 8 shows the "spare" set which includes 3 "S" chairs (instead of 2) and 1 "M" chair (instead of 2) and one table base. The discounted price for the spare set on its own is $4100. The spare set will not stack to form the obelisk because that requires two of each chair. This is the ultra-chic original space-saving solution for garden, pool or terrace furniture...
