Abstract: A furring apparatus for cylindrical lolly columns includes a pair of generally triangular support members, each having two sides which define a pair of outer walls and a third side defining an inner wall and the latter also having a generally semicylindrical channel formed therein configured and dimensioned to allow receipt of the same about a cylindrical column in close fitting relationship thereto. The support members are hingeably secured together at one corner thereof so as to allow the same to be pivoted between a closed position in which the inner sides thereof abut one another and are disposed with their channels positioned to allow receipt of the same about a cylindrical column in close fitting relationship thereto, and an open position, in which said inner sides of said members are pivoted apart from one another. The support members are fastened together when in the closed position so as to permit the members to be securely fastened on the column.
