The carving is figural and finely cut, with small robed figures, architecture and foliage built up in layers, then finished in red lacquer-toned color and gilded highlights. We read the work as Chinese, likely Late Qing dynasty, roughly 19th to early 20th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gilt shadow box frame lifts the panels from the grasscloth so the shadows do the work. At 19.5 by 24.5 inches it is a good size for a dining room wall, a study or the space above a console. Red and gold look well against deep green, charcoal and warm white walls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEra: Late Qing dynasty, roughly 19th to early 20th century (estimated)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: China (likely)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Carved wood panels with red and gilt finish, grasscloth ground, gilt wood shadow box frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 19.5\"(W) x 2\"(D) x 24.5\"(H), overall framed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Red and gold on natural grasscloth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: Wear consistent with age and use, including minor wear to the gilt and finish.
