Indian Marble Pedestal / Base

A block of white marble with nothing to hide.

This pedestal or base comes from India and is contemporary, in marble. Marble has been the favored material for pedestals since antiquity, prized for its weight, its cool surface and its way of making whatever sits on top look important. The block is a long, simple rectangle in white stone, with faint gray clouding across the face. A shallow stepped plinth runs along the bottom edge. The surfaces are smooth and square. It is 40.5 inches long, 22.5 deep and 28.54 high.

It knows its job is to support, and it does so without complaint.
