Some depicted the triumphs of emperors and kings, but most where religious in nature – bringing Biblical scenes and the Christ story into vivid relief.

These covers were the treasure bindings of the most precious illuminated manuscripts of the age.These ivory masterpieces are the inspiration for our Medieval Ivory Sculpture Candles Holders.The artisans of Illuminated Art have painstakingly re-carved and re-mastered each of these centuries worn panels – breathing in a renewed life and depth of detail into each piece
