Dorico High
Rhythm, form, spirit, beauty: the orders of classical architecture encapsulate timeless ideals, each expressing a different personality and sensibility. For Vitruvius, the celebrated Roman architect, the Doric order is naked and unadorned like male beauty, whereas the Ionian is fluted and curvaceous like the robes of a woman. The opulent Roman style is akin to a maiden, whose age and beauty justify her excessive adornments, while the Etruscans developed their own, pared-down version that celebrates simplicity and function.
Available in different heights and colours, Lalande’s classical pedestals revive the architectural orders and their inherent properties for the contemporary home, imbuing spaces with the nuance of timeless Greek and Roman architecture. They can be used on their own as bases for sculptures and vases; combined with a tabletop, they can create custom tables for any space and use.
Available in four different styles, two matte finish colours and two different heights.
A truly unique decoupage-adorned model is available, too.
Handmade in Greece from gypsum.
