FAQs

A terme is a type of pillar or pilaster featuring a human upper torso and head that tapers towards the base, originating in ancient Greece and Rome as boundary markers.

These decorative elements are typically hand-carved from dense hardwoods such as oak, walnut, or fruitwood, employing traditional hand chisels and gouges before receiving a hand-rubbed wax finish.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate tool marks, natural timber oxidisation beneath the patina, shrinkage cracks consistent with age, and construction methods characteristic of pre-industrial joinery.

These sculptural pieces can be mounted on plain walls as focal points or displayed on specialist metal stands to highlight their historical craftsmanship within a modern minimalist space.

Preservation involves keeping wooden objects away from direct sunlight and strong heat sources, dusting gently with a dry, soft cloth, and occasionally applying microcrystalline wax to nourish the timber.
