Cretan Stone Corbel Fragments by W.H. Jackson Co.- Windsor House, c. 1920s
ID: #767696
Description
Detailed corbel fragments from the underside of a mantel by the William H. Jackson Company based out of Chicago and NY. These pieces were salvaged from Windsor House (“Castle Above the Clouds”) on Lookout Mountain, Tennessee. They formed the underside element of a full mantel, originally illustrated in early 20th-century catalogues as a “Cretan Stone Mantel,” inspired by 15th-century Italian Renaissance design. Produced in the 1920s during a revival of European architectural forms, this piece was part of a sophisticated, catalogued mantel design and carries strong provenance from the historic Scholze estate on Lookout Mountain. Built in the 1930s by George and Elizabeth Scholze, the “Castle Above the Clouds” reflects the couple’s refined taste and attention to detail. George Scholze, second-generation owner of the prominent Scholze Tannery in Chattanooga, helped earn the city its nickname, “Saddle Capital of the World.” The corbel fragments measure 14-1/8″ tall, 8″ wide, and 12″ deep. They require a custom shipping quote, please contact us if you have any questions.
