The Wernher Triptych is an ivory Byzantine triptych carved in Constantinople between 900 and 1000 AD.

The triptych became part of the British Museum's collection in 1978, in lieu of taxes following the death of Sir Harold Wernher, son of the financier Sir Julius Wernher.^[1]

In the central panel stands the Virgin Hodegetria; on the side leaves are carved an angel and two saints framed in medallions; on the left Saint Nicholas and Theodore the Martyr, on the right Saint John Chrysostom and Saint George.
