Rock crystal obelisks are sought after for their pure chic! They work anywhere. They are modern and classic, and the occlusions will hold your attention. Add some brass to the mix and they stand out even more. Rock crystal and brass together enhances both.

The designer Eddie Ross gathered a collection of different obelisks in a tableau that works! In the mix are a brass obelisk and both clear and rock crystal obelisks in a variety of styles. Add some stacked books and a lamp and you have a chic design!

This grouping by Jan Showers illustrates the point perfectly. She has put together rock crystal, brass, and clear crystal obelisks, mixing the heights and the designs. This would stand out on any table!

I love a mix of modern art with antiques! Below this abstract painting two rock crystal obelisks of a modern sleek design sit on shining brass bases. The look is further enhanced with the gilded antique console table. Very chic!

Rock crystal obelisks on their own are striking, but placed along side brass they show at their best. This is a selection from Only Obelisks. Included are a pair of rock crystal obelisks, and two single rock crystal (one is part of a pair). These sit among as two brass obelisks - a very smart one with classical appliques (one of a pair) and a handsome brass neoclassical style obelisk.
