About the Item

A large decorative antique fragmentary stone statue of an angel torso circa 1800, mounted on a later 19th century mahogany plinth. Reminiscent of an ancient roman statue, this is a fragment from history - should it be able to talk, one could only wonder at what unique story it would tell! Once part of a larger limestone statue, this fragment has survived the test of time with details of the angel’s handcarved torso, wings and arm still intact after more than 225 years. A superb decorative sculptural piece for a display plinth or column where it’s timeworn beauty can be observed up close. Base ø 36 cm (14.17 in)

Medieval English Alabaster Statue
Located in Wormelow, Herefordshire
A medieval English alabaster statue, possibly dating as far back as the late 14th / early 15th century, mounted on one of our exclusive large display plinths. Well weathered over the centuries, this 600-year-old statue depicts a medieval cloaked figure, possibly a monk, offering a glimpse into English architecture and sculpture of the Middle Ages. This sculpture is possibly made from Nottingham alabaster. During the 14th and 15th centuries, Nottingham was the centre of alabaster carving and painting. Alabaster works were mostly made as small alabaster models with religious themes. During the 16th century Reformation, many alabaster carvings were destroyed under King Henry VIII's rule, making any surviving examples even more significant. Provenance From the collection of Peter Hone (b. 1941). A master plaster caster, he is an expert and experienced collector, building up an extraordinary, museum-worthy collection of items in his one-bedroom flat in London W11...
