FAQs

A pole screen is a small, adjustable floor-standing shield or banner mounted on a vertical pole, historically placed between a person seated near a hearth and the open fire. Originating in the 18th century and widely produced throughout the 19th century, these screens protected sensitive skin and wax-based makeup from direct radiant heat.

These screens were typically constructed using solid or veneered hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, or walnut for the central pole, turned column, and base. The adjustable banner frame contained hand-worked textiles, including silk embroidery or needlepoint, which were often set behind glass.

Authentic 19th-century examples display period construction details, including hand-turned pedestal columns, carved feet, and brass screw adjustment mechanisms on the reverse. Look for age-appropriate timber oxidisation, natural wear around the base, and period hand-stitched textile work within the frames.

Position a pair of pole screens symmetrically within a fireplace alcove or directly beside an unlit hearth to establish visual balance. They can also be placed in empty room corners or beside occasional armchairs as decorative sculptural accents displaying historic textiles.

Dust timber components regularly with a dry cloth and apply beeswax sparingly to the wooden surfaces, keeping polish away from the textile panels. Position the screens away from direct sunlight and central heating sources to prevent the embroidery threads from fading and the timber from cracking.
