Roman Corinthian is a classical style denoted by the acanthus leaves and scrolls. In some variations there is a flower on each side.
The decorative capital can be employed with fluted or
smooth columns. The style was extensively used in architectural
history but provides an unique decorative feature in
a modern environment. Imperial offers both load bearing and decorative models. Imperial can remake broken Capitals in multiple materials.
