About the Item

Twisted Column Italy, 17th Century H 22 cm x diameter 21,5 cm central hole diameter : 9,2 cm This sculpted stone, dating from the 17th century, is a fragment of a twisted or helical column, a form often associated with Baroque architecture and decorative stonework. Carved in a dynamic spiral pattern, the piece demonstrates the period's fascination with movement and ornate forms. The central circular cavity now lends the object a new, functional potential. Repurposed, it could serve as a unique and historically rich flower pot/pedestal or garden feature. The weathered texture and patina bear witness to its age and enduring materiality.
