1940

Description

Wall panel from South East Asia. The panel includes three deities made out of metal and semi-precious stones. They are spaced equidistant and each is standing under their own scalloped archway and making different hand gestures. The entire surface of the panes is covered in filigree and semi precious stones. There are translucent red, blue, and green stones, as well as pink, and turquoise opaque stones. There are four lions just under the deities which were made using a stamping technique on a thin piece of metal. The panel has been attached to a much larger wooden mount. The wooden mount is surrounded by a deep frame which creates a shadow box around the certificate. The wooden mount is also wrapped in orange velvet.
