About the Item
A beautiful pair of antique carved mahogany pilasters with French polish finish. These are just two of a series of architectural elements reclaimed from Worth Estate, West Sussex.
Standing at just over 2m tall, these elegant narrow pilasters are in excellent condition. Each is of a matching design, finely carved with a scrolling capital to the top above fruits, flowers, pinecones and ribbons in high relief.
Celebrated for their fine quality and intricate craftsmanship, they are a beautiful architectural features for an interior, looking particularly striking either side of an alcove, pillar or chimneybreast.
Provenance
Dating to circa 1900, these pilasters were reputedly part of the original Paddockhurst House on the Worth Estate when it was in the ownership of the Cowdray family. When Weetman Dickinson Pearson, later Viscount Cowdray, acquired the estate in 1894, he commissioned British architect, Sir Aston Webb, to remodel the house.
By the end of the 19th century, Sir Aston Webb (1849-1930) was well-known and highly regarded, having designed the entrance of the V&A Museum in 1891. He later designed the façade of Buckingham Palace in 1913 as well as other notable commissions in London and across Britain.
