Below, a secondary shelf mirrors the decorative borders framing the artwork, adding to the cohesive design.
Executed in ink, colour, and gold, the paintings depict lively scenes of figures dressed in traditional garments, celebrating the natural beauty of land and sea. One composition also features an architectural element, further showcasing the exceptional skill of the Japanese artists.
With their sophisticated craftsmanship and timeless appeal, this exquisite pair of étagères makes a stunning addition to both contemporary and classic interiors.
