Wood Stele Pedestal

Dark brown column with no ornament, and no apologies.

This oak stele pedestal is contemporary. Stele pedestals take their form from the stele, an upright slab used since ancient times in Egypt, Greece and elsewhere to carry inscriptions or mark a place. Upright rectangular pedestal with clean corners and an even, satin-matte finish in deep brown. A slightly inset base sits underneath. Faint streaks run vertically, and the sides are perfectly flat and unadorned. It is 13.5 inches long, 13.5 deep and 23.75 high.

Made to hold other things, and doing it with dignity.
