Made from straw in Malaya, this intricate straw marquetry scene is set against a black ground. The composition depicts a tranquil tropical landscape with palm trees, architectural structures, water, and distant birds, all meticulously rendered using natural straw in varying tones to create depth and texture. The artwork is housed behind glass in a simple, 1” wide, Borneo-white wood frame that complements the organic materials and highlights the contrast of the design.
This piece showcases the delicate craftsmanship and graphic elegance associated with mid-20th-century Asian decorative arts. The natural variation of the straw adds visual interest and a subtle sheen, making it an eye-catching accent for eclectic, bohemian, or global-inspired interiors. Made in Hong Kong by the Fook Wah Company Rose Brand.
