Description: Fabulous rosewood Rococo Victorian fire screen attributed to
Alexander Roux. It has a wonderful intricately carved round frame with a
carved crest. There is a circular rosewood "tube" that is held above the
surface of the round frame by small spindles and elaborate carvings. The
crest and carved frame are all indicative of the work of Roux. The middle
appears to be a delicate floral embroidery on silk. This is held on the
post by a brass ring and threaded screw which fits into a small hole in the
rod. The top finial and tripod base are all beautifully carved. A
masterpiece!
