Vintage Styling Essential One-Of-A-Kind

A pedestal that knows how to show something off. This midcentury wooden pedestal, found in Villeneuve-lès-Avignon, features a tall bobbin-turned column rising from a round base, all finished in a warm, gleaming polish. Pieces like this were often used to elevate sculpture or decorative objects, giving them pride of place in a room. Sylvie loves it exactly like this, topped with a bust or small sculpture where the height and sculptural form of the pedestal do half the work.

Minor variations from the images may occur unless otherwise noted. All sales are final.

Notes from Sylvie:

The finish has worn slightly off the top leaving it a lighter color than the base and stem. As with many antiques, this piece may show gentle repairs, cracks, scratches, holes, years worth of patina, and stains - just the way we like it.
