About

Decorate a wall with this important pair of wall mounted carvings. Hand crafted in France circa 1780, and almost 7.5 feet tall, the large architectural elements depict two intricately carved wooden panels featuring a symmetrical floral design. Each panel showcases swirling, curved vines with detailed leaves and large blooming flowers in relief. The craftsmanship emphasizes organic forms, with the vines intertwining elegantly in a mirror-like composition. The floral motifs are meticulously rendered, with particular attention to the texture and layering of the petals and leaves. The overall style suggests a baroque or rococo influence, characterized by the fluidity of the lines and the ornate detailing. The aged wood has a natural patina, enhancing the antique feel of the pieces. The tall Louis XIV carved wall sculptures are in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, and adorn a rich light oak patina. These carvings would be suited to an ornate interior, bringing a touch of historical elegance and craftsmanship. 19.5″W x 89″H
