Misericords

A misericord (sometimes named mercy seat, like the Biblical object) is a small wooden shelf on the underside of a folding seat in a church, installed to provide a degree of comfort for a person who has to stand during long periods of prayer.

Our collection is produced by an established company with over 15 years of experience in the manufacture and production of specialised resin casting and mould making.

They specialise in producing hand-crafted faithful reproductions of oak carvings made from moulds that have been taken directly from the original carvings found within the cathedrals and abbeys of the UK. These carvings are mainly found upon the lavishly decorated and ornate misericords of the choir stalls and date from the medieval period.

The producers have special permission from the Deans and Chapters of the cathedrals to take direct copies from these magnificent carvings and to then reproduce them for resale, which they have been doing for over 15 years. All the pieces are reproduced to the highest standard and produced here in the United Kingdom. They capture exactly all the fine detail into a very authentic copy that is virtually indistinguishable from the original.

Each piece comes with wall fixing.
