Rare Antique Monumental King Solomon's Gilt Masonic Columns Pillars Globes C1910.
These came out of a Masonic Temple that is going to be demolished that was built in 1917. The columns are orginal to the opening of the Temple.
The columns are all wood with a gilded finish. The Earth globe is made out of a paper material with a plaster outer liner and a gloss finish. It is mounted in a brass ring. It is marked 8 inch Terrestrial Globe. I can't make out the brand but it starts with a N or M and is made in Chicago.
The other globe is made out of copper and looks to be hand made.
Measurements- 93" tall, the Dieter of the globes are 8", the bases are 13"x13". The column diameter 9 in. The top finial piece is 13 in tall and 13 in wide.
Local pick up in Sioux City, Iowa. Willing to work with a shipper that the buyer sets up( Uship, Plycon, ect.)
Thanks
They do show wear from the years. The Earth gobe has some chipping to the plaster and the other globe has a dent. The one piller has a few chips at the base as well as other wear. Please see photos for what you will receive.
