Each valance is adorned with an elaborate arrangement of blossoms and foliage extending across the front, complemented by gracefully curved end brackets and textured carved backgrounds. The naturalistic ornamentation reflects the romantic decorative traditions of the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, with influences of the Art Nouveau movement.

The rich brown wood finish highlights the depth of the carving, while the aged surfaces lend the pair a beautifully timeworn character.

Originally designed as decorative window treatments, these architectural pieces could also be incorporated above doorways, as wall-mounted decorative elements, or into a thoughtfully collected interior.

Sold as a matching pair.
