Chinese Circular Table with Corinthian Capital Base

The Greeks put this on top of a column. Here, the column has been dismissed.

This circular table with a Corinthian capital base comes from China and is contemporary, made of marble. The Corinthian capital, with its scrolls and acanthus leaves, is the most ornate of the classical Greek orders. Here, thick curling leaves stack in tiers around a round pedestal, rising to a band of volutes and a small shell. The top is plain white with a molded edge. It spans 46 inches across and stands 32 high.

A column has spent its career holding things up. This one simply got a smaller assignment.
