An exceptionally rare 17th century church pew with Misericords from the chapel of Château de Colombes once the home of Henrietta Maria, wife of Charles 1st King of England.
The richly carved sides with scrolling foliage and flowers with cherub heads at the forefront. The back consisting of two large fielded panels above with two smaller fielded panels below. The drop down seats lift up to reveal two intricately carved misericords, one consisting of a fleur de lis design and the other the flaming sacred heart suspended by a chain, hanging above two overlapping branches twinned together and having dense leafy foliage with buds.
This pew has had some restorations through out its life as nearly all of them do, commiserate with age. The carvings are superb and it is in very good condition and has excellent colour an patination.
