- White marble obelisk with polychrome marble inlays, 20th-century Talian work.
- In addition to its more than pleasing proportions, this obelisk is distinguished by its faces adorned with colored marbles whose veins form accidents that are very pleasing to the eye. These marble inlays are limited to alternating round and polygonal geometric shapes. These motifs adapt to the slender shape of the obelisk, flattening out as the faces narrow; the square becomes a rhombus and the disk an ellipse.
White marble, which bears the hallmark of the purest Antiquity, enhances the preciousness and polychromy of these polished stones. Round shapes contain brightly-colored marble, while polygonal shapes are home to softer, muted hues. These alternating shapes and bright/pastel colors give rhythm to each face. Among the marbles used are (from bottom to top) Portor (with its golden-yellow veins undulating on a deep black background), Violet de Violette, Rouge de Vitrolles and Jaune de Sienne.
- Raised by four gilded bronze balls, this obelisk is mounted on a rectangular base, also in marble.
- In good condition, the pyramidion is missing at the top, and there is a small chip on an arete.
- Dimensions: Height: 53.5 cm, Width of base: 12.3 cm
