Decorative support white marble corinthian columns is an important part of the ancient Roman Greek architecture. A Roman Greek column typically consists of three parts: column cap or column capital, column base and column body. Column bases even in Greek architecture are fairly simple and dominated by different round configurations, which is often called Doric base column. However, the caps have many varieties. In general, Roman Greek column capitals can be classified into simple Doric style column, contemporary ionic style column and ornamental Corinthian style column.
