Pair of Charente limestone pillars

Pair of Charente limestone pillars: This elegant pair of antique limestone pillars features a simple, classical architectural design. They will enhance a classic property entrance, gateway or outdoor passageway.

Each gatepost consists of a square-section shaft with chamfered edge joints. The upper section is particularly well crafted, with the capital featuring profiles that give the pillars an elegant and well-proportioned silhouette. The base  plinth blocks are wider than the shaft, providing a strong visual foundation and stability.

The antique limestone has a natural patina, with subtle variations and irregularities that contribute to its character. Their architectural design makes them equally suited to a period property or a more recent building looking for that Classic theme.

A beautiful pair of antique limestone pillars in good clean condition, both functional and decorative, whose fine profiles and naturally aged stone immediately add character to an entrance.

The Charente is a region in western France, renowned for its architectural heritage, charming towns and villages and fine quality limestone traditionally used locally and much further afield.

In the photos, the pillars are shown with our Scrollwork wrought-iron gate (ref. 2026058).
