The pyramidal form was much in vogue at the end of the seventeenth century, not only for decorative ornaments, but also for architectural elements, such as the chimneypieces designed by Daniel Marot (1661- 1752), and for the arrangement of table decorations and particularly flowers, as evidenced by the popular Dutch Delft pyramidal flower vases of this period. Marot is also known to have used scallop shells as architectural motifs above doors, and it is possible that the inspiration for the unusual combination of the pyramidal shape with the shells on these obelisks can be credited to Marot or even to Jean le Pautre (1618-1682), a prolific engraver of elaborate designs.

Great on a side table or anywhere ...
