Fine Pair of Wooden Columns, Italy, Circa 1880

Pair of patinated and gilded bronze turntable pedestals with for each of them, three paw feet, headed by stylized lion muzzles, ornated with beaded chains and joined by a fine foliate stretcher. The belt is adorned by a banded frieze cast in low-relief representing an ancient scene : “The Battle of the Lapithes and the Centaurs”. These pedestals can be associated with the "Vases de Bacchus", presented by G. Servant at the 1867 Exposition Universelle, on which the similar ornamentation is applied.
