Magnificent Pair of Antique Chinese Deeply Hand-Carved Architectural Panels (Late 19th/Early 20th Century)
stunning pair of Antique Chinese wood carved wall panels, believed to date from the Late 19th or early 20th Century (Late Qing Dynasty or early Republic period). Originally serving as majestic door or window panels in a traditional Chinese building
Estimated Age: Late 19th or early 20th Century
Wood Type: Believed to be a dense Chinese hardwood (such as Elm or Camphor), which lends itself to the intricate, deep-relief carving. The material contributes to the piece's substantial weight and durability.
Intricate Deep Relief Carving: Each panel features extraordinary deep relief carving—a hallmark of quality Chinese artistry—showcasing a complex, three-dimensional scene with pagodas, sailing junks, figures, and dense foliage.
Grand Scale: Standing 7 ft 7 in tall, these panels are ideal for homes with high ceilings, adding an impressive architectural and sculptural element to any room.
Rich Wood Tone: The panels are finished in a rich, warm brown hue, providing beautiful contrast that highlights the depth and shadow of the carvings.
Condition & History:
Authentic Wear: Consistent with their age and history as architectural elements, the panels show minor wear and tear.
Evidence of Original Use: Close-up photos show marks and wear, particularly along the vertical frame edges, which are remnants from where they were originally attached or hung as door or window components. This evidence speaks to their genuine antique origin and patina.
Overall Presentation: They present beautifully as a decorative pair, bringing texture, history, and a global aesthetic to a sophisticated interior.
Measurements:
Height: 7 ft 7 in (Approx. 91 inches)
Width (Each Panel): 23.5 in
Depth (Framed Edge): 2 in
Note: The total width of the pair mounted side-by-side would be approximately 47 inches
