Large Pair of Antique English Carved Oak Caryatid Brackets

About the Item

A beautiful matching pair of antique English carved oak caryatid brackets, dating to circa 1870. Handsomely carved, these oak brackets were previously used as ornate fireplace jambs. Styled as classical caryatid style female masks above herm style scrolling corbels below, each female subject is expertly captured, carved with a crescent moon headpiece, earrings and two long braids that crossover at the centre. Their very large scale, rich colour and appealing finish makes each oak bracket a stunning architectural element of an interior.
