ABOUT PRODUCTID 5967
This double-sided decorative panel from China, dating to the 20th century, exemplifies refined textile craftsmanship. Set within a round, dark brown wooden frame featuring a smooth, polished finish and visible grain, the panel displays a semi-translucent fabric in a pale blue hue. At its center is a lifelike depiction of a cat, with white and warm golden-brown fur, rendered in glossy silk threads and shown in a dynamic pose facing a finely embroidered green praying mantis. The embroidery is marked by subtle color gradations and delicate shading, enhancing the naturalistic, three-dimensional effect. The panel is supported by an intricately carved wooden stand with traditional Chinese design elements, completing the composition. The external dimensions are 34 x 27 x 7.5 cm, the round panel measures 27 cm in diameter, and the stand is 14 x 7.5 x 3 cm. The piece is preserved in excellent condition, with no visible signs of use or restoration; all elements are original and well-maintained. This panel carries the voice of late 20th-century Chinese craftsmanship, where tradition meets the delicacy of material. Silk threads weave a narrative of everyday moments and symbolic nature, with the cat and mantis engaged in a subtle, dynamic dialogue across a cool blue backdrop. The semi-transparent fabric gently filters light, allowing soft reflections to enter the room, as if the scene itself exists in its own contemplative microcosm—quiet, focused, and serene. The panel may be displayed atop a sideboard or in a low display cabinet, where the carved base and circular form are highlighted by natural daylight or
