French Hand Carved Needlepoint Fireplace Screen in Herndon, Virginia For Sale

French Hand Carved Needlepoint Fireplace Screen
Price: $400
Date/Time:27 Nov, 05:48 p.m. EST
Type: Art & Antiques, For Sale - Private.

Absolutely wonderful antique French fireplace screen. The beautifully handcarved wooden surround retains the old, probably original, soft yellow painted surface with appropriate age wear and crackling. The exquisite needlepointed tapestry insert depicts a turreted castle at a distance near a body of water as if seen through an opening in a forested wall. The tapestry is old and appears to be also original with minor damage in 2-3 places that is noticeable only on very close inspection. The screen is almost 36? high to the peak of the carving, and 28? wide at the widest point. Frame joints at the four corners are tight, but visible. One leg has a repaired break above the arched and carved foot.
