Description

One of the finest early carvings, I have purchased in a long time....I think it is part of an elaborate over-mantle, above the fireplace in an English manor house or from the panelling around a very grand room....it shows two finely carved cherubs holding the most beautiful Tudor Rose and I love the way each cherub has an English oak leaf covering their modesty...the carving is as I have bought it and has not been restored, as a lot of collectors and myself prefer to leave it as it is now....always pleasing to see a piece like this, showing the 400 year journey it has been on.....the carving is in good condition with a pleasing colour and natural patina.
