About the Item

This elegant French pedestal column in carved alabaster beautifully evokes the spirit of neoclassical design, with fluted lines, a finely detailed acanthus leaf capital, and a bold octagonal base. Crafted in five interlocking sections, this piece was likely made during the 1930s, during a period when classical forms were reinterpreted for refined interiors. The warm, creamy tones and natural veining of the alabaster give the piece a soft, luminous presence, ideal for displaying a vase, sculpture, or urn. The modular construction reflects a thoughtful design approach, combining traditional style with practical function—typical of early to mid-20th-century decorative arts. The pedestal shows signs of age and wear consistent with its history, including a few hairline cracks at the base (see photos), but it remains structurally sound and visually striking. Whether placed in a living room, entryway, or gallery, this piece offers timeless architectural interest and a sculptural accent full of character.
