Antique inspired Architectural ornament - 1950-1960 - Oak floral ornament.

Large antique hand-carved oak floral ornament / furniture crown – about 1960 – 54 cm A beautifully and richly executed antique furniture ornament carved from oak, dating from the 20th century. The ornament is fashioned as a lush vertical composition of flowers, leaves and fruits. At the center is a large flower rosette, beneath which sits a beautifully three-dimensionally carved rose with smaller flowers and fruits. The upper part is also richly carved and forms a decorative crown. The woodcarving is notably deeply executed, with the individual petals, veins and curved leaves nicely three-dimensionally rendered. The visible grain, signs of wear and the warm aged patina give the piece a lot of character. It was probably originally part of a richly decorated piece of furniture, mirror, cabinet crown or interior paneling. Dating: circa 1960 Origin: Germany Material: presumably solid oak Length: circa 54 cm Style: historicist / Louis XVI neobaroque influence In a handsome authentic condition with age- and wear-related signs appropriate to its age. See the photos for a good impression of the detailing and condition.
