About the Item

Add a noble touch to your study or library with this elegant 19th-century heraldic plaque. Crafted in France circa 1870, the antique wooden shield features a beautifully hand-painted coat of arms with two rampant lions on a central escutcheon, crossed swords, and delicate foliate motifs. Above the crest sits a knight’s helmet adorned with a pearl necklace and plume, all rendered in subtle tones of gray, cream, and gold. The shaped panel retains its original patinated finish, showing minor wear consistent with age and use, which enhances its authentic, timeworn character. This decorative piece would make a refined accent in a study, library, or gentleman’s office. Measures: 17.25" W x 25.25" H.
