This superb marble Roman column fragment circa 1st to 2nd Century A.D. is a wonderful example of the Doric order, renowned for its solid and elegant simplicity.

With wonderful provenance from National Trust property Stowe House.

Carved from Calacatta marble, or ‘Luna’ marble to the Romans. Vertical fluting along cylindrical body highlights the functional yet refined aesthetic typical of Doric design, which was a cornerstone of classical Roman architecture.

The fragment represents the height of Roman architectural achievement during the Empire's classical period. Despite its age, the fragment remains well-preserved, with visible fluting and a natural patination that speaks to its centuries-long history.

Its former role was likely being part of a larger structure, potentially a temple or civic building.

Its simplicity, combined with its timeless beauty, makes this fragment a captivating connection to the architectural achievements of ancient Rome. Both ancient and modern.

An ancient artefact which stands alone as an interior work of art. It could also be added as an inspired decorative element in your outdoor space - Integrate in creating a garden or a landscape of ruined stone fragments, complemented by Mediterranean plants such as olive trees, lavender, or rosemary. The juxtaposition of classical stonework with vibrant natural greenery would be reminiscent of the elegance of ancient Roman gardens, adding a sense of history and tranquility to any outdoor space.
