This French vintage corbel is made from reconstituted stone and features classic acanthus leaf detailing. The carved design is bold and symmetrical, with layered, curling leaves and a central ridge that adds depth and texture. Often referred to as an architectural fragment or stone bracket, this type of piece was originally used as a decorative support beneath cornices or shelves.
It makes an interesting decorative accent on a shelf or console table and can also be styled upright among books or ceramics. Its weight and character give it presence, whether displayed alone or as part of a larger vignette.
A beautiful piece of vintage French architectural salvage with a strong, sculptural feel.
Condition: There is general age related wear.
