Rococo Brass & Ceramic Round Wall Plaque - Turquoise Floral Bouquet with Ribbon Crest
Categories:
Design & Inspiration
There is a quiet drama to this circular wall plaque — the way the turquoise ground draws the eye inward toward a softly rendered floral bouquet of roses and wildflowers, while the surrounding acanthus scrollwork in gold unfurls like a living garden border. Crowning the piece is a sculpted ribbon-and-bow crest, one of the most beloved motifs of the Louis XV Rococo period, imparting an unmistakable air of 18th-century French aristocratic refinement. This handcrafted wall hanging from Brass & Wood faithfully interprets the spirit of Sèvres porcelain decorative plaques, bringing the grandeur of the Rococo salon into the modern interior.
Materials & Craftsmanship
The circular frame is cast in solid brass and finished by hand to achieve a warm antique tone, with every detail — the egg-and-dart beaded border, the lush acanthus rocaille cartouches at the four compass points, the pierced ribbon bow at the crown, and the floral rosette feet of the display stand — individually worked by skilled artisans. The central medallion is a high-quality ceramic panel decorated with a polychrome floral bouquet against a vibrant turquoise ground, framed by a gilded acanthus-scroll border that transitions seamlessly between the ceramic surface and the surrounding brass. The display stand, integrated into the lower section, features symmetrical floral mounts and allows the plaque to be presented freestanding on a shelf or console, in addition to wall-mounted display.
Dimensions & Details
The plaque measures 27 cm wide by 30 cm tall — a scale that commands attention without overwhelming a wall grouping. It weighs 4 kg, a reassuring testament to the density and quality of its solid brass construction. The circular form, the Rococo ribbon crest, and the turquoise-and-gold palette make this piece equally at home above a fireplace mantel, centered on a bedroom feature wall, or as the anchor of a curated gallery arrangement in an entrance hall or reception room.
