The Greek Ionic Erechtheum capitals are arguably the most exquisite capitals that the
Greeks produced.  In classical architecture, the Erechtheum (Ionic temple of Athena)
boasts the beautiful and precise details of the volutes (scrolls).  These scrolls are believed
 to resemble the make-up of a woman's hair.  Our Greek Erechtheum PolyStone® Fiberglass
 Composite Columns are available with both a plain, tapered and a fluted, tapered column
 shaft.  Review our column dimensions and load-bearing capacities to match the column
sizes for your exterior project or interior project.
