Striking pair of vintage Chinese black lacquer wall plaques featuring carved and inlaid hardstone birds and florals in high relief.

One panel depicts a peacock with detailed tail feathers; the other features songbirds among flowering branches. The inlaid elements are carved stone set against a deep black lacquer ground with gilt-painted borders in traditional geometric and scrolling motifs.

Produced for export in the 1970s-1980s, these plaques embody the Hollywood Regency / Chinoiserie revival aesthetic popular in Palm Beach and traditional maximalist interiors.

They make dramatic vertical statements in:

* Entryways
* Dining rooms
* Stair halls
* Over consoles
* Flanking mirrors or artwork

Original export label remains on reverse.
