The tapering central shaft, adorned with densely layered neoclassical motifs including draped figures, acanthus scrolls, and medallion reliefs, rises from an ornate urn-form base to a crowning capital platform that is both architectural and sculptural.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterials \u0026amp; Finish\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe body is crafted from genuine burgundy marble, selected for its dramatic veining and warm rose undertones. All decorative hardware — from the foliate garland frieze at the plinth base to the figural cartouches on the column shaft — is cast in brass and finished in antique gold, replicating the celebrated ormolu technique of nineteenth-century Parisian ateliers. The result is a seamless dialogue between cool stone and warm gilded metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCraftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery detail of this pedestal is produced by the skilled artisans of Brass \u0026amp; Wood in Egypt, who marry centuries-old European casting and stone-setting traditions with meticulous hand-finishing. The brass mounts are individually cast, chased, and polished before being set against the marble substrate, ensuring crisp definition and lasting brilliance. This piece is as much a work of art as it is a functional display surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDimensions \u0026amp; Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eقطر30 سم – ارتفاع 108 سم\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brass \u0026 Wood","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49186336473339,"sku":"MARCOL95777","price":57461.04,"currency_code":"EGP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0826\/0563\/7883\/files\/empire-marble-gilt-bronze-column-pedestal-neoclassical-front-view.png?v=1786878441","url":"https:\/\/brassandwood.co\/en-za\/products\/napoleon-iii-marble-gilt-bronze-pedestal-column-marcol95777","provider":"Brass \u0026 Wood","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
