Description

This fabulous pair of rare large yew wood treen vases are in the form of large stemmed goblets following a design similar to glassware of the period. They have been beautifully turned on a country woodman’s pole lathe in native well figured yew wood. They have been made in two sections joined just above the foot and they are both in untouched original condition with fabulous rich colour and lustrous patination having been built up from being regularly wax polished over the centuries.

English circa 1760. Rare and in lovely condition.

After forty years of shop keeping and maintaining beautiful showrooms, which have been regularly open six days a week, Robert and Wendy have now taken a slightly different approach to their business. Having sold their retail premises, the antique business is now fully online. The picture framing service has ceased to operate because of moving online.

Customers can rest assured that the long-established dealership is continuing to run in an exceedingly professional way, selling genuine and high-quality items which are guaranteed to please the most discerning collector, decorator or homeowner.

All items will be personally hand packaged to a high standard. Small items are extensively wrapped using the best materials and are often double boxed. Items are then shipped with DHL or Royal Mail fully insured and often with next day delivery. Larger items would be personally delivered or sent with a specialist antique delivery firm, or for outside the U.K, a professional shipping company.

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Treen refers to small, hand-turned or carved wooden domestic objects crafted before the widespread industrial production of metal, glass, and ceramics. Yew wood was favoured during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in Britain for its high density, elasticity, and distinct reddish-brown grain patterns.

Eighteenth-century treen vases were typically turned on a pole lathe or treadle lathe from a solid block of seasoned timber. Turners hollowed out the centre and shaped the exterior contours, including flared rims, knopped stems, and stepped bases, before polishing the surface with wax or oil.

Authentic eighteenth-century treen displays subtle irregularities in symmetry due to hand-lathe turning and age-related timber shrinkage. Key indicators include historical patination, soft wear on handling points, faint turning marks inside hollow sections, and natural surface craquelure or shrinkage cracks along the grain.

Antique wooden vases can be displayed on a sideboard, mantelpiece, or open shelving as standalone sculptural accents. Pair them with neutral stone or ceramic elements to create texture contrast, or position them against painted backdrops to highlight the warm timber grain.

Keep yew wood treen away from direct heat sources, radiators, and strong sunlight to prevent warping and timber splitting. Dust regularly with a dry, soft cloth, and apply a thin layer of natural beeswax polish annually to maintain the timber finish and protection.
