Bring a touch of 19th-century French history to your home with this exquisite bronze model of the Louxor Obelisk, standing proudly on its elegant black marble base. A true souvenir, this sculpture celebrates the iconic monument erected in 1836 on Place de la Concorde in Paris — a symbol of the fascination for Egypt during the 1800s.
The bronze features beautifully detailed hieroglyphics, a tribute to the original obelisk of Luxor, gifted to France by Egypt. Time has lent it a soft patina, enhancing its authenticity and charm. The black marble base, framed by a delicate bronze fence, adds depth and sophistication to this historical piece.
Whether displayed on a desk, library, or mantel, it embodies travel, history, and timeless French elegance.
