A very fine, hand carved, reclaimed newel post cap / top. The cap is very well made, using mahogany, and dates to the late Victorian period, C1895. The newel post cap has a beautiful design with hand carved acanthus leaves and a ball finial. The cap has been sanded to bare wood and is ready for finishing by purchaser with a wax or polish to suit. The newel post cap is in good antique condition with some slight signs of age, as expected. The post cap has some small surface cracks, marks and knocks. There is some slight colour variation to the wood and the underside has some residue glue from where it was previously used. Please see pictures for condition details. The newel post cap has a fantastic appearance and is very finely carved, making it a desirable item for a home project.
