Acanthus Riser by Campania International
The Acanthus Riser is a favorite when it comes to a bit of architectural detail with a pottery layout. This riser is 2-inches across and 3-inches tall and in that small space, it packs an amazing amount of detail. It is the right size for small, medium and large planters
If you need to see a sample of one of Campania finishes, this is the one we love to send you. The Acanthus leaf picks up the stain in a variance of ways to display all the colors brilliantly.
A little bit of history:
The Acanthus leaf is a well know symbol in design with origins dating back to Ancient Greek and Roman culture. It is a symbol we often see in when touring accent sites in Europe and even in some of American Architecture. The detailed nature of Acanthus leaf drew the appeal of the architects and artisans to the kings of the past. The Acanthus plant itself originates from the Mediterranean area and its beauty still inspires the artisans of today.
Tips for choosing the right number of Risers:
- The shape of the planter is the main factor.
- Square - you will need four, one for each side.
- Rectangle - four to six, one for each side and for long rectangle planters you may need more support.
- Round - three to four. Only three if the planter is small and light weight but four is always best

Returns:
When you order a product made by Campania International, it is a final sale. To help remedy any question about what to buy please utilize our free design service. We can help you choose the color of a little bunny statue or which estate fountain is right for your home. Campania International’s items are all handmade to order and the majority of them are heavy. Shipping back fountains or pottery that weigh over 500 pounds is a laborious process that without the proper packing knowledge is almost impossible to do with damaging the item further. That being said, we at The Garden Gates stand by Campania’s policy and if there is any issue with the piece we will work to resolve it in the best way possible.
