The square top is capped with a veined dark marble, introducing a tonal contrast to the richly figured wood below. The rosewood veneer is meticulously bookmatched, creating a symmetrical grain pattern that draws the eye.

Slender vertical supports rise from a stepped base, their darkened finish framing the central veneer panels and lending height to the silhouette. Subtle brass accents punctuate the transitions, adding a restrained decorative note characteristic of the Art Deco period. Elevated on rounded feet, the pedestal balances structure and ornament.

Ideal for displaying sculpture, ceramics, or as a sculptural object in its own right.

Condition: Great overall vintage condition, with minor scuffs and scratches consistent with age and use. There is a small chip near the base that does not detract from the overall appearance. This pedestal has been partially refinished by our team of restorationists, enhancing the surface while preserving its original character. See less
