About the Item

A set of 4 antique handcarved oak leaf gilt corbels originating from Millearne House in Perthshire, Scotland (now demolished). Once an architectural feature of Millearne’s interior, these oak carvings likely decorated one of the many grand rooms of the gothic revival manor, complementing the plasterwork of the lavish vaulted ceilings said to be created by the plasterer, Alexander McQueen. Varying in size, each is carved with oak leaves and acorn to the top and bottom and finished in gilt paint that only adds to their decorative appeal. Highly intricate and with a unique story to tell, these antique carved corbels will make stunning decor pieces and could be attached to hooks to hang on an interior wall in any arrangement as desired. Millearne House, Perthshire Built in the early 19th century by architects Robert & Richard Dickson, this Tudor/gothic style manor house is sadly no longer standing in its original form. Now a stripped back wedding venue, large parts of the house were demolished in 1969 as it became unwieldy and unmanageable due to the constant additions and renovations continuously added since 1821. Every room was a tribute to gothic architecture, including ceilings drawn from Crosby Hall in London, chimneys from Thornbury castle, oak ceilings from New Walsingham Church in Norfolk and a fireplace from Windsor Castle.
