Hawthornes Antiques

Description

From an unknown Oxford University a great decorative antique honours board.

Commemorating young ladies who had achieved degrees from the early 1900’s through to the middle part of the First World War.

A hard wood panel with striking gilt text listing their achievements. The dates of their awards would lead us to assume these ladies were born in the 1880’s/90’s and looking at the names makes one wonder how their lives progressed, what did they go on to do?
