Black Forest Carved Oak 1870 Antique Architectural Salvage Crest

A "Black Forest" hand carved oak crest is from the region where Switzerland, Austria and Germany meet. Architectural salvage from about 1870, hand hewn tool marks are visible on this antique fragment.

The original finish is very well preserved and has been waxed and buffed. All that is needed to maintain its warm patina is an occasional wipe with a soft dry cloth.

Size is 34 1/2" wide, 8 1/2" tall and 2" deep.
