The verde antico marble shaft rises from a bold square plinth, evoking the ceremonial columns of imperial palaces and salons.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterials \u0026amp; Finish\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe column is constructed from genuine verde antico marble, celebrated for its deep green tone and intricate white veining. Every bronze element — the acanthus-leaf capital, the swag-draped mid-collar with its finely chased drapery, and the urn appliqué adorning the plinth — is cast in solid brass and finished in rich antique gilt, replicating the authentic ormolu technique of 19th-century French ateliers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCraftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach piece is handcrafted in the Brass \u0026amp; Wood workshops in Egypt by artisans trained in classical European joinery and metalwork traditions. The bronze mounts are individually cast, hand-chased, and polished before being carefully fitted to the marble body, ensuring a seamless marriage of stone and metal that honours the original Imperial aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDimensions \u0026amp; Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eN\/A\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brass \u0026 Wood","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49186336342267,"sku":"MARCOL1957","price":36291.18,"currency_code":"EGP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0826\/0563\/7883\/files\/empire-marble-pedestal-column-gilt-bronze-mounts-front-view_1.png?v=1786878429","url":"https:\/\/brassandwood.co\/en-za\/products\/empire-marble-pedestal-column-gilt-bronze-mounts-marcol1957","provider":"Brass \u0026 Wood","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
