This 19th Century pair of Chinese Qing style wall plaques consists of two rectangular black lacquered wooden panels set within deeply carved dark wood frames decorated with floral motifs. The artwork depicts birds perched among flowering branches and foliage, meticulously rendered using colourful abalone, mother-of-pearl, and other decorative shell inlay alongside metallic foil highlights. Each panel measures 90 cm high and 54 cm wide. Positioned as striking statement wall art, these maximalist pieces suit placement above a sideboard in a living room, dining room, or hallway. The intricate shell work catches the light against the dark background, while the heavy floral carving on the timber borders adds depth and texture to interior displays.

FAQs

Keep lacquer panels away from direct sunlight, radiators, and high humidity to prevent cracking; gently remove dust with a dry microfibre cloth without applying water, polishes, or chemical cleaners.

A pair of vertical panels creates balanced focal points when mounted above a sideboard, console table, or bedside drawers, contrasting minimalist contemporary furniture with intricate historic craftsmanship.

Authentic pieces display organic shell iridescence with subtle colour variations under light, hand-engraved line details on the shell pieces, and hand-carved timber frames rather than modern molded resin.

Artisans apply coats of natural sap-based lacquer over wood substrates before meticulously cutting, carving, and setting pieces of mother of pearl or iridescent abalone shell into the surface, finishing with detailed surface polishing.

These decorative wall artworks feature iridescent mother of pearl and abalone shell inlaid into hand-applied black lacquer surfaces, a decorative art form developed and refined during the Ming and Qing dynasties.
