About the Item
Hand-carved from Italian limestone, this pair of ball finials on pedestals measure over four feet tall. Both balls are roughly 15 inches in diameter and sit atop a square plinth. Beneath the plinth is a three-piece rectilinear pedestal, with subtle cavetto moldings at the top and the base. The limestone is dark gray with some lighter areas, dotted with a black patina and brown accumulation of lichen that gives the stones a more advanced age appearance. Ball finials, such as our pair on pedestals, can often be seen at Italian villas, flanking the entrance of a garden. They could also be used as decorative elements inside.
*For shipping and transportation purposes, the finials can be disassembled into two pieces, while the pedestals are in three sections.*

Italian Ancient Botticino Marble Pair of Pinnacles, circa 1850
Located in Milano, IT
Pair of pinnacles
Northern Italy, mid-19th century
Botticino marble, carved
They measure 33.1 inches in height x 17.7 x 17.7 (84 cm x 45 x 45)
State of conservation: some visible cracks and various small gaps.
The two twin architectural elements of sculpted Botticino marble have a quadrangular base from which a chalice-shaped foot extends. Resting on this, a round pod-like element swells up to support a large pine cone. This is the main decoration: however, the other ornamental details enhance and embellish it, while exalting its position above, whether observed from afar or up close.
These aesthetic characteristics suggest that originally the pair of pinnacles were placed on columns or on architectural plinths...
