Column No. 1 Polished Green Marble Sculpture

Column No. 1 Polished Green Marble Sculpture Dimensions: 5” x 31” (including 4” base)
Dimension: Polished green marble on a black marble base

Karl Geckler’s Column No.1 is a refined exploration of balance, materiality, and sculptural form. Carved from richly veined green marble and resting on a smooth black marble base, this piece reinterprets the classical column with modern restraint. Standing 31 inches tall, including its 4-inch base, the sculpture’s proportions feel intentional and quietly powerful.

The polished surface of the green marble enhances its natural depth, drawing the eye to its organic veining and tonal variation. As light moves across the cylindrical form, subtle shifts in color and texture give the sculpture an evolving presence—one that feels both solid and serene. The contrast between the dark, linear column and its polished black base further heightens its architectural clarity.

Column No. 1 bridges the worlds of classical symbolism and minimalist sculpture, making it an ideal piece for collectors, designers, or curators seeking custom stone work with a timeless aesthetic. Whether placed in a gallery, contemporary home, or luxury commercial setting, the piece complements both traditional and modern environments with equal grace.

This sculpture exemplifies Karl Geckler’s ability to distill form to its essence—celebrating the material without ornament, and honoring structure without rigidity. It invites reflection on themes of stability, elevation, and stillness, while remaining visually accessible and deeply crafted.
