ORNAMENTAL PEDESTAL, COLUMN, AND PILASTER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 18, 1908.
Application filed October 26. 1907. Serial No. 399.294.
To all whom it may concern: 7
Be it known that I, WILLIAM JOHN GRAY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Jeannette, county of VVestmoreland, State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ornamental Pedestals, Columns, and Pilasters, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to ornamental pedestals, columns, and pilasters, and like structures, and its primary object is to provide an article or like structure of the char-. acter indicated, of simple and inexpensive construction which will be attractive and ornamental in appearance, and adapted for a variety of purposes particularly in the builders art, and in the construction of household articles.
The invention comprises a pedestal, column or pilaster consisting of a series of rods, strips or vertically disposed sections of glass, arranged in parallel relation, in combination with means for securing the ends of said rods, strips or sections.
The construction of the improvement will be fully described hereinafter, in connection with the accompanying drawing which forms part of this specification, and its features of novelty will be set forth in the appended claims.
In the drawings :Figure 1 is a side elevation of a pedestal embodying the .invention, Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of the same illustrating the manner of securing the ends of the glass rods or strips, Fig. 3 is a horizontal section of the frame or support within which the glass rods or strips are secured, Fig. 4 is a similar view showing the glass rods or strips in position. Fig. 5 is an elevation of an ornamental stand or support for household use embodying the invention, and Fig. 6 is a front elevation of a metal provided with ornamental columns embodying the invention.
The reference numeral 1 designates a base of Wood or other suitable material, and preferably of square form as shown, formed on the upper surfaces with an annular groove 2.
Centrally from the base 1 rises a standard 3, to the upper end of which is secured a cappiece 4 formed on its under surface with a circular groove 5 corresponding in diameter to the groove 2 of the base. The grooves 2 and 5 form seats for the ends of the glass rods from which the shell of the column is formed.
The base 1, standards 3, and cap-piece 4 constitute a frame to support a series of rods, strips or sections 6 of glass, which are arranged to rest one against another forming a cylindrical shell of glass surrounding and concealing the standard 3 of the frame.
In assembling the elements of the structure, the lower ends of the glass rods or strips are fitted within the groove 2 of the base, after which the cap-piece 4 is placed in position to confine the upper ends of the rods or strips within its groove 5, and said cap-piece is then secured by any suitable means to the upper ends of the standard.
It will be apparent that the grooved cap and base maintain the rods or strips in vertical position without the employment of supplemental fastening devices of any kind, and that the pedestal or column may be easily and cheaply constructed.
By the employment of glass rods or strips of various colors articles of highly attractive appearance may be produced.
The invention is adapted for various purposes in the decoration of buildings and in the manufacture of articles for household use. For example in Fig. 5 the invention is embodied in a stand or table adapted to support a lamp 7. In this instance the cappiece 4 is made smaller than the base 1 and serves as the top of the stand or table, and surrounding the lower portions of the glass rods or strips 6 is an ornamental annular ring 8 resting upon the base 1.
i In Fig. 6 I have shown a mantel ornamented by parallel pillars or columns built up of the rods 6 in accordance with my invention, and it is obvious that the improvement is applicable to many other lines of decorative work.
Although the glass rods 6 are shown circular in cross-section, they may be of any preferred cross sectional contour, and I would have it understood, that the invention is not restricted to the construction here shown and described, but includes all such modifications as may fall within the terms and scope of the claims.
Having fully described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is,
1. A pedestal column, or like article comprising a frame consisting of a base, and a cap-piece each provided with a groove, and a standard connecting said cap-piece and base, in combination with a series of glass rods, strips, or sections the ends of which are confined within said grooves, said glass rods being in abutting engagement and forming the shell of the column.
2. A pedestal column, or like article comprising a frame consisting of a base formed with a circular groove on its upper sides, a standard rising centrally from said base and a cap-piece secured to the upper end of said standard, and formed on its underneath face with a circular groove, in combination with a series of glass rods, strips or sections hav ing their ends confined within said grooves, said rods resting one against another to form a cylindrical glass shell.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
WILLIAM JOHN GRAY.
