SOLD Hall Bench, Carved Hallway Storage Bench, Gothic Revival, Carved
This antique hall bench is from the Gothic Revival era, and dates from the late 19th century. European in origin, this bench is possibly constructed of beech, and is a nicely carved example with oversized pierced crest of interwoven leafy tendrils centering a grotesque mask of a creature with open mouth and fierce brow with deep set eyes. The facial features are framed by thick wavy fur, and the solid back panel is similarly carved with a mask amidst dense foliate vinery within a deep molded frame flanked by pierce carved foliate scrolled arms, the leaf carved arm rests capped with volutes, joined to S-curved supports. The seat is fitted with a leaf carved hinged panel opening to a storage well. The front with a carved panel centering a grotesque mask which conforms to the back panel. The pilasters of the box seat are also enhanced with masks. All above a well carved molded and stepped plinth raised on scrolled carved feet. The bench retains the original ebonized black finish, and measures 58” h x 46” w overall x 21” d. This antique bench has minor repairs to the crest visible from the back, otherwise it is very good.
