Condition

The columns are in overall good restored condition. Overall with old marks, chips, scuffs, and scratches consistent with age and use. There are some areas with minor losses, restorations and minor refilling. The capitals are later. The spiraling twisting shaft is attractive - indeed, the curve gives energy and dynamism to the traditional cylindrical column.
