Columns have been used for centuries to
support arches and beams. A column typically consists of a base,
a shaft, and a capital, or “top.” Generally speaking,
the capital is the most decorative portion of a column and can “make
or break” a column’s appearance. A Temple of the Winds
capital is a stunning example of a take on classical motifs.
Temple
of the Winds capitals include stylized acanthus leaves to help move
the eye upward to the square abacus, or the square
portion of the column that meets the beam or arch above. The use
of stylized acanthus leaves on the capitals of columns dates back
to ancient Greece and Rome.
Temple of the Winds capitals are available
in several sizes to meet your needs. With so many sizes from which
to choose, you should
not have a problem using Temple of the Winds capitals in the interior
and exterior of your home or building if you would like.
Columns
