By [email protected], 11 November, 2010
Description

This beautiful set of four vintage Asian Chinese Wall Art Panels feature an intricate layering of abalone shell to make the bird floral and scenic landscape. See closeup photo of abalone shells detail. The shells are carved and are a biege color, reflecting light to show the detail of the art. For example the flowers may have 4-5 layers of abalone shell to make the petal layers of the flower. Some sections of small leaves and fine lines are painted in gold.The panels are heavily lacquered black with a gold and silver paint detail on the outer frame. Each panel has a chinese design hanging hook at the top made of brass. The backside is fully enclosed in solid wood. Each frame is in very sturdy condition and the abalone is well attached. They need some restoration along the frames outer edges some small pieces of lacquer have come off. As shown in the photo, one has some lacquer coming off at the bottom and another has some lacquer that has come off the frame. Sold as is. If you have any questions, send me an e-mail. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Each panel 36" height x 12" width
