Wood Column Capitals and pilaster tops
Carved Wood Capitals | Architectural Column & Pilaster Toppers
Embrace the essence of architectural elegance with our collection of wood capitals. Designed to crown columns, pillars, and pilasters, these masterpieces add a touch of sophistication and historical charm to any space. Whether you are restoring a historic building, designing a luxury entrance, or adding accents to custom furniture, our capitals serve as the perfect finishing touch.
Versatile Applications
While historically used for supporting roof beams, today decorative wood capitals are a universal element for creating beautiful accents in various settings:
- Columns & Pilasters: The classic use—topping vertical supports to soften the transition to the ceiling or architrave.
- Doorways & Portals: Pilaster capitals frame doorways, visually stretching the height of the room and adding grandeur to the entrance.
- Furniture & Cabinetry: Small carved capitals are frequently used on kitchen islands, fireplace mantels, wardrobes, and bed posts to add a "furniture-quality" look to joinery.
- Religious Interiors: A staple in church design, often found in iconostasis, altars, and lecterns.
Historical Styles: Ionic, Doric, & Corinthian
Our collection pays homage to the ancient Greek architectural language. From the ornate floral motifs of the Corinthian order (featuring acanthus leaves) to the scrolled volutes of the Ionic style and the clean geometry of the Doric. Adding these elements brings a sense of rhythm, history, and aristocratic style to modern interiors.
Premium Materials & Custom Production
Our products are made from durable, high-quality solid wood, specifically beech and oak. These species are chosen for their high structural strength and ability to hold fine detail.
Custom Orders:
