Astonishing antique Asian carved panel with plant motif ~ Circa 1880's, Bamboo in relief , Leaves with Flowers.

This is an amazing piece that will catch anyone's attention when displayed! It has had carved designs of bamboo stalks, leaves and flowers that have been attached to a wooded panel giving the piece a wonderful three dimensional look. A nice frame has been added to the panel bringing your attention to the main motif. A red lacquer like stain has been applied over the piece giving it a wonderful shiny look. On the reverse side a carving of fish in a bamboo basket has been done and a yellow fleck is mixed with the red lacquer background. I'm not sure if this was meant to be seen from both sides; possibly it was a cabinet door or a panel in a divider? We purchased it with a note attached to the reverse side that reads: "Obtained from the estate of Judge Henderson Kansas City Missouri, taken from home library. October 1999".

Measures: 24 1/2" L x 13 3/8" w x 1 1/2' Deep
