Pair of Green Breccia and Carrara Marble Pedestals

About the Item

A Pair of Green Breccia and carrara Marble Pedestals Each has a square top with stepped pediment of fine white carrara marble. The column of unusual green breccia marble stands atop a rectangular carrara marble foot. An interesting detail, showing the skill of the marble cutter, is that the tops of the pedestals are square but that are cut in such a way that they taper to a rectangular foot. The green breccia marble has a pale yellow ground containing pyrite crystals. The veining is indicative of pressure during formation of the marble, which is quarried at the foot of the Col de Marie-Blanque mountain pass in the western Pyrenees. Probably French, circa 1830.
