Inspired by the famous Elephant Obelisk designed by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, this obelisk is exclusive to ORNAMENTI. The renowned original was unveiled in 1667 in the Piazza della Minerva in Rome, adjacent to the church of Santa Maria sopra Minerva and the iconic Pantheon, where it still stands today.
This Elephant Obelisk is made entirely by Italian artisans in Vicenza, the city of the Andrea Palladio (1508-1580). Combining modern stone cutting techniques with artisan stone masonry skills, handed down through the centuries, guarantees the exclusivity of this design. The Elephant Obelisk would make a major statement in any garden or landscape, either used singly or as a handed pair. Elephant Obelisks could also be used either side of an entrance, inside or out. Supplied new with an antique patina.
