King & Country
A superb reconstruction in miniature of the “Winchester Round Table” which can still be seen hanging in Winchester Great Hall in England. This magnificent design bears the names of various Knights of Arthur’s court and was probably painted for a tournament in the time of Henry VIII (1491-1547). The original wooden table itself has been dated much earlier to the reign of Edward I (1239-1307) who was a great enthusiast of the Arthurian legends.
Accompanying the Round Table is the King’s Chair, a wooden construction on which the King...and only the King...could sit.
With the story of King Arthur, his Knights and that very famous “Round Table” it’s exceedingly hard to separate mystery, myth and legend from the few known facts that are available.
So, K&C has carefully picked through all of this information and selected what they think is a fair and balanced representation of one of the most famous stories in British history. Collectors can decide for themselves whether they’ve succeeded in capturing the spirit and essence of these legendary figures from the Age of Chivalry...
Chairs and figures are for scale purposes only.
Table measure 7.125" across and 1.5" tall. Chair is 2.625" tall x 1.375" wide x 1.125" deep.
