About the Item

Beautiful design and excellent condition drawing or painting stand with hand carved wreath. Every now and then, a piece comes along that just stops you in your tracks. This antique easel is one of those finds. Hand-carved from rich walnut around the late 1800s, it has all the hallmarks of the era: incredible craftsmanship, a love for classical design, and just the right amount of patina from well over a century of life. What makes this piece special are the details. Up top, a beautifully carved laurel wreath and ribbon, symbols of victory, achievement, and honor since ancient times, drape elegantly across the frame. At the center of the drawing box with panel, there’s a profile of a helmeted figure in classical style, perhaps Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom and the arts. The whole thing feels like it could have come straight out of a Victorian salon or a grand artist’s studio. The hardware is original, with lovely aged brass hinges and fittings that work smoothly. The easel folds for storage but opens up to display artwork, menus, or even a special book in the most sophisticated way possible. This highly stylish, late 19th century studio easel has it all. 1. The great design with its top quality sculptural details is both rare and aesthetically very pleasing. 2. This handcrafted and hand carved specimen is of excellent quality and it has a perfect patina. 3. This stunning easel also is highly practical. 4. It will be difficult to ever find another 19th century easel in this amazing condition. 5. It is antiques like this that make being in your home, gallery or studio that much more enjoyable. We acquired this amazingly sculptural easel from a mansion in Amsterdam, Holland and even if you have nothing displayed on it, this remarkable workmanship stand brings style and class into the room like very few pieces ever could. It could only be offered on the platform that is home to the most beautiful things on earth, but we expect it to be flying to another home soon, because this easel is great value for money.
