## Piers of the Middle Ages

Medieval builders used compound piers in Romanesque and Gothic churches. These piers had a core with attached shafts. They carried arches and vaults. A large pillar table base echoes that weighty form. A medieval pillar table base brings that weight into a room. The Romanesque style came before the Gothic.

## Old Stone, New Plaster

Chartres Cathedral used a four-part pier called a pilier cantonne. A medieval column dining base recalls that sense of mass. The gray wash gives the plaster an aged look. A large pillar table base needs room and a sturdy floor. The medieval pillar table base weighs 165 lbs. Medieval column dining base designs suit stone halls and dark wood. Chartres is a famous High Gothic cathedral.
