Where were these panels originally placed?

These carvings formed integral parts of historic interiors, functioning as overdoors, staircase panels, architectural pediments, and wall decorations within churches and grand houses. Over time, many of these architectural elements were salvaged from buildings, turning structural woodwork into independent wall art and sculptures.

How do I hang a heavy wooden panel?

Because these panels are carved from dense hardwoods like oak and walnut, they require robust wall fixings anchored directly into studs or masonry. Professional framing or custom metal brackets that support the weight from beneath are recommended to protect the antique wood from stress.

How do I tell seventeenth-century work from nineteenth-century revivals?

Seventeenth-century carving displays tool marks, timber shrinkage, and wear consistent with age, alongside the vigorous undercutting typical of the period. Nineteenth-century baroque revival pieces often show cleaner mechanical execution and different patination on the timber. Examining the back of the panel reveals construction methods and wood ageing that help establish the true period of manufacture.

How should I care for antique wood panels?

Keep carved panels away from direct sunlight and away from heat sources like radiators to prevent the timber from drying out and splitting. Maintain a stable indoor humidity and dust gently with a dry, soft brush without applying modern polishes or oils.
