Item Details

A pair of antique architectural capitals attributed to renowned English stone manufacturer Eleanor Coade.


Dating to circa 1860, this pair of decorative ionic capitals are a fragment from architectural history, preserved through time for more than 200 years.


With their detailed fine quality and neutral buff colour, typical of Coade, these decorative architectural capitals make an impressive interior piece.


Made in Coade stone, a famous and innovative material of its time, developed by industry pioneer Mrs Eleanor Coade. Find out more about this famed stone over on our blog.


Coade Stone


During the 1780s, classical architecture saw a burst in popularity and Coade stone was one of the industry front runners.


The etchings pictured showcase the stones sheer popularity, the business offering a huge range of designs for customers to choose from.


Coade stone is renowned for its hardiness and durability and as a result, these capitals likely look very similar as they did when Eleanor Coade first designed them more than 200 years ago.


Today, they could be used as it was intended to embellish architecture or alternatively as an object of historical interest in an interior.
