Entasis columns, which date back to early Greek and Roman times, are characterized by their smoothly curved tapering shafts. By offering standardized sizes, Advanced Foam lets you add these distinctive decorative shapes to your set at minimal cost. Choose between two styles: the simpler Tuscan or the more slender Roman Doric with its slightly embellished capital and base.

Tuscan style entasis columns (below left) feature a base shaft diameter of 14" for columns whose total overall length ranges from 90" to 105". For columns longer than 105" and up to 120" in length the base shaft diameter increases to 16", and the capital and base dimensions shown here increase by 2" as well.

 Advanced Foam's entasis columns are usually supplied assembled in one piece with a 4" x 4" center cutout. They can be custom ordered with larger or smaller cutouts as needed.

Column lengths and diameters other than shown here are available on special order. We also offer a variety of capital and base designs.

Roman Doric entasis columns (near left) feature a base shaft diameter of 12" for columns whose total overall length ranges from 90" to 105". For columns longer than 105" and up to 120" in length the base shaft diameter increases to 14", and the capital and base dimensions shown here increase by 2" as well.
