    When I bought this 110 cm high pair of pedestals, at an auction several years ago, they were black and needed some restoration. My guess would be that they are from somewhere in Western Europe around 1880. If you know better, then don't hesitate to tell me !

      Are they wood ?? My guess would be American Made. I have bought several pairs over the years, mainly from wood workers or craftspeople who sometimes like to make these.

      Yes, some sort of pine, I would guess.
