About the Item
A monumental pair of malachite obelisks, a remarkable 60 cm high. Carved from the finest natural malachite, these pieces are distinguished by their superb shades of green and hypnotic veined patterns, unique to each obelisk.
Inspired by the neoclassical style, these works evoke the refinement of the great 19th-century collections, while blending perfectly into a contemporary or eclectic decor. The carefully crafted stepped base accentuates the slenderness and presence of each piece, giving the ensemble a perfect visual balance.
Ideal for adorning a console, bookcase, mantelpiece or collector's display case, these malachite obelisks are as much conversation pieces as they are decorative objects. Their magnetic presence makes them an ideal choice for lovers of decorative art, interior designers or discerning collectors in search of a rare, timeless element.
