Custom Carved Newel Post

Wood stair post is sanded nice and smooth and ready for finishing. This project involved recreating a staircase model based on a photo. This is a custom carved model – classic, highly ornamental wooden style. The post is tall, rectangular, and vertically paneled, giving it a solid, architectural presence at the base of the staircase.

The cap is decorated with carved foliage motifs (likely acanthus leaves), creating a rich, textured crown that adds elegance and formality. The shaft of the post has fluted panels running down its length, which emphasize height and provide a sense of refinement. 

The design leans toward Victorian or late 19th-century craftsmanship, combining ornamental carving with geometric structure — solid yet decorative.

It pairs with barley-twist balusters, which reinforce the ornate, traditional aesthetic of the stair.
