These imposing pedestals would look splendid flanking the bottom of the grand staircase in the Entrance Hall, set with elaborate floral arrangements. Alternatively, they could be displayed in the Library, bearing classical busts (see below). The work of the talented Erzsébet Bodzas of Hungarian Miniatures, they’re full of detail, from the acanthus relief on each of the four sides to the beaded decoration around the top.
