About the Item

Tall, sculptural, and understated, this vintage modern pedestal makes an immediate impression. Its octagonal body stands with quiet confidence, providing a strong visual anchor in any space. The surface is finished in plaster, giving it a gypsum-like presence that feels both raw and refined. The material’s subtle irregularities create texture, catching light and shadow across its faceted planes. With its simple geometry, the pedestal functions as both display stand and sculptural accent. It is versatile enough to hold artwork, plants, or decorative objects while also standing as a piece of design in its own right. The plaster surface ensures it complements a variety of styles, from contemporary to eclectic. Whether in a gallery, studio, or living space, it provides a clean backdrop that enhances whatever it supports. This pedestal exemplifies vintage modernism at its best—functional, adaptable, and quietly expressive through form and material.
