Description
Terra Alta carries the texture of the Terra table up to the height of a column: a square-section pedestal close to a metre tall, hand-carved with its pores left open and the mineral imprint of freshly cut stone, stabilised and sealed for daily use. It is the upright sibling of the Terra side table, made to lift a sculpture, a floor vase or a plant to eye level. The veining rises with the column and the porosity catches raking light, so the piece shifts across the day. Each Terra Alta is handmade to order in 60 to 90 days, with the unique veining of its block, and travels with protected timber-crate shipping across Europe.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is a travertine pedestal like Terra Alta for?
Terra Alta lifts to eye level what deserves to be seen: a sculpture, a floor vase or a plant. At 90 cm tall with a 40×40 cm top, this natural-textured travertine pedestal lends visual weight to the piece without competing with it. Seal the surface once a year and dry spills at once.
How to clean and seal travertineIs each Terra Alta unique?
Yes. The veining and porosity are those of the block it is carved from, and natural stone never repeats. No two Terra Alta columns are alike: the open pores and mineral imprint are its signature, part of the character that sets it apart from a polished finish.
Can I order Terra Alta in another height or section?
Yes, we carve Terra Alta to the height and section you need in travertine, keeping the natural texture sealed. Lead time is 60 to 90 days. Tell us what will crown the column and we calculate proportion, weight and stability.
