Product Description
This rustic cantera stone column with carved capital is a handcrafted architectural element that blends strength with elegance. Carved from volcanic cantera stone, its porous texture and natural gray tones with darker and lighter flecks highlight authentic quarry character. The square plinth base transitions into a slender cylindrical shaft, while the carved capital features layered moldings that emphasize its classical role. Available in standard heights of 6, 7, or 8 feet, as well as custom sizes, these columns serve as both structural supports and ornamental accents for hacienda courtyards, Spanish Revival interiors, or Mediterranean-style architecture.
