Recessed Top Natural Wood Pedestals
Price range: $562.58 through $1,086.62
Recessed Top Natural Wood Pedestals combine the warmth of real wood with secure, enclosed display. A 1-inch deep recessed center is set into the top of the pedestal to hold an acrylic dust cover, creating a secure perimeter that keeps the cover seated around fragile artifacts, collectibles, or contemporary art.
Because the cover drops into the recessed center, the usable display space is the same as the cover height. Standard finishes include Natural Maple, Natural Red Oak, Oiled Cherry, and Oiled Walnut, each showing genuine grain and depth.
Every pedestal is built from high-quality materials and finished with environmentally friendly, water-based lacquers and stains at a 40-sheen that sits between satin and semi-gloss. A proprietary miter system keeps seam lines ultra-fine, and each piece supports up to 250 pounds with reinforcement available.
Made to order in Illinois in three body sizes and four heights, these pedestals give museums, galleries, and premium retail a clean, protected way to present valuable work.
