This striking pair of large 19th-century carved wooden corbels showcases the elegance and craftsmanship of Renaissance Revival design. Likely of French origin, each corbel is hand-carved from solid walnut—a durable, high-quality hardwood known for its rich tone and fine grain.
Standing an impressive 20 inches tall, these architectural elements were originally used to support projecting structures such as shelves, cornices, or console tables. Their ornate design features deeply carved drapery, scrolling foliage, and floral motifs—classic characteristics of the Renaissance Revival style that flourished in 19th-century European interiors.
Both decorative and functional, these substantial corbels can be creatively repurposed: use them as dramatic shelf supports, wall-mounted brackets, or as part of custom furniture or built-in cabinetry. Their size and detail also make them a standout as standalone decorative accents.
With their sculptural quality, historical character, and generous scale, this matching pair adds timeless architectural interest to any space.
