A very attractive pair of Grand Tour Obelisks offered in lovely condition, with a nicely aged patination and some historic chipping to the polished black marble bases. The Luxor Obelisks were the largest to have been erected by Ramesses II, one of which remains at the temple in Luxor, the other removed to the Place de la Concorde, Paris in 1833.
