 Tuscan Bases

  Doric order style. Although

  from the Italian Renaissance 

 (14th century), they have great

 appeal today in both classical or 

 modern architecture.

     the shaft

ZeamentTM Attic Bases

 

To replace rotted or broken bases, GFRC-ZeamentTM is the perfect solution! It is a composite of Portland cement and polymers producing a smooth exterior finish. It is strong, heavy and load bearing. The Torus and Plinth are hollow, however the Plinth is wide enough to carry column loads. Custom sizes are available from 6" to 48" diameter. Large bases are made in 2 parts Torus and Plinth or split for reassembly around an existing column shaft.
