VERY RARE Original Panel from the Chinese Pavilion at the St. Louis 1904 World’s Fair.One-of-a-kind small mahogany and bone panel- a handmade wood carving that was crafted in China, disassembled, and shipped to the US where it was reassembled for the World’s Fair.The patterns depicted were crafted at the beginning of the century to replicate Prince Pu Lun’s Palace in Peking.
This panel depicts an insect amongst leaves/branches.
Panel is over 100 years old- in original condition— very slight blemishes, scratches, and general wear, but in great condition. The piece was carefully stored at Washington University- and inherited through two generations. There are 2 noticeable cracks in the wood, pictured... but do not take away from the beauty of the piece.
