acanthus leaf Corinthian capital
The acanthus leaf column capital is a polyurethane column capital worked with acanthus leaf decoration. Fitted to the top of columns and pilasters of the Corinthian order, it is used as a classical architectural finishing element. The polyurethane material is lightweight and applied with construction adhesive; it resists moisture and impact, does not crack, blister or warp, and can be painted. Being much lighter than a stone or plaster capital, it is easy to carry and install. As it is cast in moulds, the leaf curves and proportions repeat identically on every piece. Polure produces the acanthus leaf capital in different diameter and size options.
