Description

Apart from its obvious visual appeal, this gothic framed section of a 15th Century oak rood screen has a quiet, understated quality that draws the attention and creates conversation. (Rood or rood cross, sometimes known as a triumphal cross, is a cross or crucifix, specifically the large crucifix set above the chancel of a medieval church on a beam or screen) Thanks to the later addition of a well-chosen weathered and distressed oak surround, the inner historic framework is fully supported and can be used in many different decorative schemes or projects. With some ingenuity, and without risk of damage to the original medieval tracery or frame, it could easily be used to enhance a work of art, such as a sculpture, carving, stained glass panel or painting. And with a little forethought, it could also be used in a more structural manner.

Dealers Notes

Whenever possible Culvertons undertake the carriage of items within London and the home counties. Professional, competitive and trusted couriers and shipping companies are engaged for deliveries for the remainder of our customers. Smaller items, when instructed, will be carefully parcelled and securely sent by the carrier.

We strive to accurately describe and illustrate our stock on the 'Selling Antiques' website. However, we understand that it is not always possible to judge from photographs how an item will look in the home or garden. For this reason, if notified within seven days from the date of delivery we offer a full refund (less any agreed carriage costs) once the item has been returned in the same condition as it left our premises.

FAQs

A rood screen is an ornate partition in a church, traditionally separating the nave from the chancel, often featuring intricate wooden tracery and religious iconography.

These screens were predominantly constructed from heavy native timbers such as oak, heavily hand-carved with mortise and tenon joinery.

Authentic pieces exhibit period tool marks, deep patina from centuries of oxidation, shrinkage cracks, and traditional joinery methods consistent with pre-industrial carpentry.

Mounting fragments securely on a neutral wall as sculptural art allows the historical texture and form to serve as a focal point in contemporary spaces.

Maintain stable relative humidity levels, keep out of direct sunlight, and avoid applying modern varnishes or oils to dry, historic surfaces.
