Description:

Being offered for sale is this fabulous early Victorian Rosewood Needlepoint Adjustable Pole Screen / Fire Screen circa 1865.We believe this piece to have its original finish and the framed needlepoint is just beautiful and very nicely done. The needlepoint is framed with a unique scalloped edging with it original gold liner and old fabric backing. You can adjust the height at the back by loosening the knob on the brackets allowing you to raise or lower the framed needlepoint. The top portion of the pole offers a turned finial at the very top and a fantastic graduated spooled base that rests on a rosewood round base with three tripod feet. A truly wonderful period piece to add to your Victorian Decor.

Measurements:

This piece measures 64 inches in height to the finial at the top of the pole, the framed needlepoint measures 19 inches wide by 21 inches high. The needlepoint portion measures 17 1/4 inches high by 15 1/4 inches wide and this piece weighs approximately 18 lbs.

Condition: 

This firescreen is in fine antique condition with the only apology I see being a small piece of the scalloped frame around the needlepoint is missing on the right bottom corner which I have shown in a close-up picture. The brackets on the back that hold the needlepoint area to the pole appears to have some of the screws replaced over the years. But other than the normal signs of usage and marks of character you normally find in pieces of this age thats it...just a beautiful elegant piece of 19th century craftsmanship. Please view and examine the pictures as part of the description and ask all questions and concerns before purchase.
