This is a unique Chinese Hand Carved and Hand Painted panel that was collected from either an old Chinese  bed or cabinet.  In the 1800's in China, it was common for the parents in a family to have hand carved scenes as part of their bedroom headboard for the bed. These were often destroyed when the parents passed away.  These carved wood panels are from southeastern China, and have either figurative carvings, serene settings or birds  and flowers with a rich china red and lacquer and hints of the Elm wood under body. All the carving details are situated inside of a relief frame.  They are lovely and beautifully carved to either frame or  to display on a wall.
