Description

A late 17th century carved oak hunting scene, depicting a man preparing to shoot a wild boar with his flintlock rifle as his dog attacks it.

It is possible that this carving was once longer and part of some kind of tavern cistern. There is a hole drilled in the centre of the carving with a rebated circle, which would suggest this once had a tap on the front. Its a very unusual fragment and has a superb patina, with traces of original polychrome. Overall the carving is in excellent condition and there is an old repair to the leg of the boar.

Date of Manufacture

Youngs Antiques has dated this Carved Oak Hunting Scene to the 17th Century.

FAQs

Seventeenth-century woodcarvings often depicted pastoral, biblical, or hunting motifs, reflecting the cultural interests and elite pastimes of the period, frequently integrated into architectural woodwork or furniture.

These pieces were typically hand-carved from dense domestic hardwoods like English oak using gouges and chisels, relying on traditional joinery and finishing with natural oils or waxes.

Authenticity is determined through tool mark analysis, wood shrinkage patterns, natural oxidisation, patina development, and structural consistency typical of early hand-tool manufacture.

Displaying such items on a mantelpiece, bookshelf, or dedicated display stand creates a strong focal point that bridges historical gravitas with modern minimalist or eclectic decor.

Preservation requires stable indoor humidity levels, protection from direct sunlight, and occasional treatment with microcrystalline wax while avoiding liquid polishes or harsh cleaning agents.
