Graduated pairs of dark turned-wood prickets are a decorator's staple — they instantly add height, texture and old-world warmth to a mantel, harvest table, altar, or entry console. The rubbed patina on these gives them that collected-over-time look designers pay a premium for, and the two heights are far more useful styled together than a matched pair. Perfect for farmhouse, Gothic, Colonial, or moody modern interiors, and priced well under what a pair of true 19th-century prickets commands.
