Pair of Alicante Red Marble Columns H 100cm

Pair of Columns in Alicante Red Marble. Handmade in Italy.

Columns in architecture represent the cornerstones of a building, thus symbolizing stability, balance and solidity. Like many vertical elements, they symbolically connect Earth and Sky, becoming an expression of men’s gratitude towards the gods, as well as stability, strength and perfect balance.

Imposing and elegant, columns, in an interior setting, are an impressive decorative solution, suitable for any style, from classic to modern. They will easily combine with important antiques, but also with the more modern styles of liberty and rococo inspiration. In contrast with the clean lines of modern and design settings, they will instead be able to give a touch of timeless elegance.

THE MATERIAL.

Marble, beloved by the most celebrated sculptors and architects around the world and throughout the ages, is also asserting its artistic power in the modern conception of architecture and interior design. The classic and timeless taste of Michelangelo’s favorite material adapts to the most varied contexts, from the new liberty and Baroque style, to clean and essential lines, up to industrial-inspired settings.
