Deep carved Wooden Plaque depicting a Forest Scene with Stag and Deer

A superb piece for decoration, this deeply carved wooden plaque depicts a forest scene with stag and deer. We particularly like the detail and high relief of the overhanging branches! We're not absolutely sure of the origins of this piece nor how old it is, but stylistically it would seem to be older rather than newer. It is hand carved and the rear shows signs of wear and tear consistent for an item of some age. The wood itself is relatively light in weight.

Perhaps you like it just for what it is - we certainly did, and we've not seen another one like it.

The plaque measures approximately 35cm (13¾in) by 27cm (10¾in) by 1.7cm (¾in). The inner "frame" has a width of about 7mm (¼in.). The rear has a small slot for hanging.

Kitsch Deer and Forest Scene Wall Plaque

A very kitsch item... It's silver-coloured plastic on a dark wood background, depicting a somewhat three-dimensional scene with a stag and two deer in a forest setting. But, of course it is!

They say you can't improve on perfection, but we have painted the sides of the plaque in a blackboard finish paint to complete the look. There are some hole marks on the rear where the hanging has been changed at some point and there is a minor blemish on the front where there was possibly glue at some point (a sticker, perhaps?), but it's not very noticeable.

There's not much more that can be said about an item like this, except that it measures approximately 40cm by 20cm and is 1cm thick (15¾in by 8in by ½in).

If you like this kind of thing, then you'll like this thing - probably! ;)

Domed kitsch decorative plate wall plaque of a stag

This domed decorative plate (for want of a better word) is approximately 25cm (10 in) in diameter and features a colourful mountain scene with deer and a stag and a gold coloured edging. The dome is a clear plastic and the backing is of a plywood style. It's "of its time" and undeniably kitsch and serves absolutely no purpose whatsoever other than to make you stop and admire it in all its glory. We stopped and admired it in all its glory, and ended up buying it. Perhaps you'll do the same?

Kitsch Wooden Letter Rack

Do letter racks come any more kitsch than this imported collapsible gem featuring a deer design in wood dating from the 1960s? We doubt it. It's hangable and approximately 33cm by 13cm (13in by 5in) but is immeasurably quirky.
