Indian Marble Pedestal / Base

A black box with nothing to say, which is exactly what a pedestal should be.

This pedestal or base comes from India and is contemporary, in marble. Stone plinths have been used for centuries to raise sculpture and objects to eye level, and India remains one of the great sources of carved and polished marble. Here a deep black block with a mirror-like top rests on a stepped, molded base in the same dark stone. The sides are smooth and unadorned, the edges crisp. It is 39 inches long, 21 deep and 18 high.

It plans to let whatever sits on it do the talking.
