The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

During the 16th century, enthroned Madonna sculptures represented the Virgin Mary as the Queen of Heaven, functioning as devotional focus points in private chapels, churches, and religious institutions across Renaissance Europe.

Sculptors favoured dense European hardwoods such as walnut, oak, or lime wood. Figures were often carved from a single block and subsequently prepared with a gesso ground before applying tempera pigments or gold leaf.

Authenticity is evaluated through visible gouge and hand-tool marks, natural wood shrinkage aligned with the grain, genuine oxidisation of the timber, and layered wear to original polychrome or gilded surfaces.

A carved wooden sculpture functions as a strong focal point when set atop a dark timber sideboard, positioned on a stone fireplace mantelpiece, or displayed within a curated bookshelf alcove.

Preserve the carving by maintaining a consistent relative humidity level between 45% and 55% to prevent cracking. Dust gently using a dry, soft camel-hair brush and avoid liquid cleaners or wax polishes.
