Monumental Brasses

From time to time we procure second hand brasses from various sources. As you can appreciate, brasses don't really wear out, though they are sometimes a little tarnished. This can easily be rectified however, by gently rubbung over the surface with wire wool, which will bring them up like new.

Sir John D'Abernoun to Sir Robert de Bures. This section includes the Adoration of the Shepherds and Robert the Bruce, as well as a number magnificent brasses for well known names such as Beauchamp and Bellingham, featuring various styles of armour and dress designs.

Sir Edward and Lady Elyne Cerne to Margaret Dayrell. Another selection that is well laced with styles in suits of armour and ladies dresses.

Henry Everard to the Footrest collection, wherein we have carefully extracted just the footrest animals from a number of our other brasses to produce a delightful set of animal brasses.

From Thomas Golde to The Miners brass, including the magnificently gruesome Ralph Hamsterley, whose skeleton plays host to some very well fed worms! This section also contains the Madonna and Child.

From Canon Henry Oskens to Elizabeth Poyle. This section contains a number of brasses from the Penn family, as well as two of the Peyton ladies, showing some of the most impressive dress designs on any brasses anywhere.

Thomas Quartermain to Sir Humphry Stanley. This section not only includes the stunning Sister Marguerite de Scornay and the beautiful St Nicholas and St Eloi brasses, but also that of Thomas of Canterbury and William Shakespeare.

John and Lettys Terry to The Virgin Mary and the Visitation of the Shepherds. This selection includes superb costume detail from the Vernays, whose wealth of offspring is only surpassed by that of the Sir Robert and Dame Jemima Wilson.

This section includes Nicholas Wadham To an unknown Medieval Yeoman of the Crown.
