Monumental Postmodern Travertine look Fossil Stone 'Scroll' Plinth c. 1980s style of Fratelli Mannelli

A striking example of 1980s Postmodern design, this sculptural plinth balances organic movement with the weight of natural stone. Carved from Fossil stone, the piece features a dramatic S-scroll silhouette that acts as a bridge between classical architecture and Brutalist texture.

The design is defined by its contrasting finishes: the smooth, honed surfaces of the display tier and outer edges meet a raw, chiseled interior spine, creating deep visual interest and shadow play. The cylindrical detail at the neck adds a geometric softness to the otherwise heavy form. A versatile piece that functions as a pedestal for sculpture, a plant stand, or as a standalone architectural object. This is a Sculptural Pedestal that will be a focal point of a room.

• Material: Fossil stone 

• Style: Postmodern / Brutalist Revival / Italian 1980s influence.
