    Pyramid Post Caps For Stair Newels

    Looking for something to dress up the top of your stair newel post; but don't want to go with a traditional turned ball ? Why not consider using our Pyramid post cap design.

    This post cap is recessed underneath to drop over either a 90x90mm or 115x115mm stair post. The 115mm design is available in only Pine and Vic Ash, but the 90x90 design is available in 10 different timbers; such as Jarrah, Spotted Gum and Blackbutt (just to name a few).
