About the Item
A fantastic very large pair of exceedingly rare leaded stained glass Palladian window panels, circa late 19th century. Features the Manchester England Coat of Arms, aptly titled 'Concilio et Labore' translated to 'By Counsel and Work' or 'Wisdom and Effort'. At the center is a heraldic Antelope and Lion centered around a shield beneath a ship and world globe with bees. The glass is boldly colored and impeccably designed. The coat of arms is centered over a large leaded lattice design and framed wood with an antique white finish. Removed from a prominent municipal building in England. Restored & Professionally Crated.
Manchester's coat of arms was granted to the city in 1842 and is a classic heraldic design, showing a shield of red and gold, bearing the image of a ship, supported by an antelope and a lion and crowned by a globe covered in bees.
And as it is heraldic, each part of it signifies or suggests an aspect of the city’s past and present 180+ years ago.
• The red shield with gold stripes is taken from the lords of Manchester, who ruled the city prior to 1301
• The ship in full sail is a reference to the city's growing trade and enterprise
• Either side of the shield are an antelope and a lion, derived from the arms of King Henry IV, which can be seen from the red Lancaster rose on their shoulders
• The lion is a symbol of bravery and strength, while the antelope (referring to a mythical beast, not an actual antelope) means peace and harmony, extreme courage and discipline
• At the foot is the city's motto, Concilio Et Labore, which means 'by counsel and work', a phrase derived from the Biblical book of Ecclesiasticus
• Above all this is probably the most famous part, a globe covered with bees, a symbol of industriousness
All that considered, the coat of arms proclaims Manchester as a city of global trade and industry, built on extreme courage, bravery, strength and discipline and filled with peace and harmony.
