Corinthian capital

Corinthian capital

Product description

The Corinthian capital is an architectural element in terracotta modeled according to the canons of the Corinthian order of classical tradition. The richness of the carved foliage and the harmony of its proportions give it a strong architectural presence, ideal for historic settings, gardens, and interiors with a defined classical character.

Crafted in natural terracotta following the artisanal tradition of Impruneta, it features a textured surface with warm tones that enhance every sculpted detail.

Features

• Finely carved acanthus leaves arranged in overlapping tiers, with well-defined veins and elegantly curved tips typical of the Corinthian style.
• Lateral volutes rising above the foliage, creating vertical movement and visual dynamism.
• Flat, squared upper band designed to support a slab, shelf, or decorative element, or to be used as a standalone capital.
• Small floral motifs in the upper section that enrich the decoration while maintaining formal balance.
• Solid and well-proportioned structure, suitable both as an architectural feature and as a decorative base or support.

Thanks to the high-quality terracotta and generous thickness, the capital is suitable for outdoor use, where it can naturally develop a patina over time, further enhancing its character.

Overall, the Corinthian capital is a timeless sculptural piece, perfect for gardens, loggias, entrances, courtyards, and interior spaces that wish to evoke the grandeur of ancient architecture through authentic craftsmanship.
