About the Item

A very large and impressive antique medieval style stained glass window removed from Holkham Hall, Norfolk. This beautifully preserved piece of English history was recently discovered from storage in the Hall’s cellar. Holkham Hall is one of the most prestigious houses in the UK with a rich history dating back to the early 17th century. Founded by the Coke family, Holkham Hall’s illustrious Neo-Palladian style villa began construction in 1734. Designed by owner of the hall, Thomas Coke, 1st Earl of Leicester (1697-1759), alongside Lord Burlington and architects, William Kent and Matthew Brettinghan, the main hall was completed in 1764 and remains to this day one of England’s finest examples of Palladian revival architecture. Discovered at the Holkham Hall Estate, this spectacular mid-19th century window is thought to have once resided in the villa’s private chapel and removed during later renovations. It is designed in the medieval style using vivid stained glass colours to create intricate repeating patterns, typical of windows seen in the medieval period. It is in unrestored condition as discovered, fitted into an original stained oak frame. Dimensions include the original frame as pictured.
