FAQs

A polescreen is a piece of antique furniture developed in the 18th century, featuring an adjustable screen mounted on a vertical pole with a tripod base, originally designed to protect a persons face from the intense heat of an open fireplace.

They are typically constructed from dense hardwoods such as mahogany or walnut, featuring turned standards, tripod cabriole or splayed legs, and an adjustable framing mechanism holding a textile panel, frequently worked in needlework or embroidery.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate joinery, hand-turned wooden components with patination consistent with age, traditional hand-wrought iron or wooden adjustment mechanisms, and period textiles showing natural fibre degradation and wear.

They can be positioned beside a seating area or in an empty corner to add vertical interest, historical texture, and a focal point through their framed textile panels.

Protect the wooden frames with microcrystalline wax, keep textiles out of direct sunlight to prevent fading, and maintain stable indoor humidity levels to preserve both the wood and the historic stitching.
