The fireplace above was a pre-formed "monster" made of plaster of paris. The Interior Designer that commissioned this piece to be marbled had exactly "what the doctor ordered" in our opinion.  It was done several years ago in one of the six homes at the "Vesta Home Show", (parade of homes, held around the Memphis area every year) and got a LOT of nice compliments.

The column photos (immediately above and above left) are the same column.  The similar looking column (far left) was in the same room.
 
We thought the faux "distressed copper" rings (top and bottom) was a nice touch to match the variegated colors of the column and the greenish base.
 
 

Gotta love the faux "EXOTIC WOOD" rings!

(In the photos BELOW)...we at R. C. Carter Art (personally) did not care much for the dark, (speckled black marble look), upper and lower. While we will make suggestions and give our opinion, in the end, we will always do what the client wants.  -- RCCarterArt
