A striking black lacquer wall panel richly decorated with mother of pearl inlay, depicting two elegant cranes set within a stylised landscape of bamboo, palms, and water.
The iridescent shell catches the light beautifully against the deep black ground, giving the piece a subtle shimmer and depth that changes depending on the angle. The shaped edge adds to its decorative impact, making it feel more like an artwork than a simple panel.
Pieces like this are traditionally associated with East Asian decorative arts, where lacquer and shell inlay were used to create detailed, symbolic scenes. The cranes, often linked to longevity and grace, add another layer of meaning.
A statement piece that works beautifully on its own, bringing contrast, texture, and a slightly opulent edge to a space.

A powerful Cameroon ceremonial helmet mask carved from a single block of dense hardwood. The weight alone tells its story. At 2.5 kg, it has the presence and gravity of a piece that was made to be worn in ritual, not produced for the tourist market. The broad, domed form and expressive features create a striking silhouette, softened by the worn pigment and the slow patina of age.
There is a real sense of character in the carving, from the raised triangular chest to the deep set eyes and the toothy grin. It feels both protective and enigmatic, exactly what you want from an old ceremonial mask. The surface carries the marks of handling, use, and time, giving it a texture that only comes from decades of life.
A commanding sculptural piece for a shelf or console.

A striking hand-carved wooden mask with a skull-like form and deeply carved features. The hollowed eyes, elongated nose and exposed teeth give it a raw, almost ritualistic presence.
The surface has a beautifully worn patina, with traces of red pigment accenting the eyes and mouth, adding to its intensity. It feels aged, expressive and slightly unsettling in the best way.
This isn’t a decorative filler piece. It’s something that anchors a space and sparks conversation.
Perfect for collectors drawn to tribal, primitive or darker interior styles.
