Description
Design & Inspiration
There are objects that do not merely decorate a wall — they animate it. This handcrafted Louis XVI neoclassical brass wall medallion is one such piece. Drawing directly from the refined decorative vocabulary of late 18th-century French court interiors, it captures the moment when European design moved away from the exuberant curves of Rococo and embraced the disciplined elegance of Neoclassicism. The warm metallic frame, with its rhythmic acanthus border, soaring ribbon-bow crest, and cascading bow pendant below, frames a hand-painted ceramic disc that glows softly at the composition's heart — a bouquet of roses and mixed blooms rendered in the tradition of Sèvres porcelain painting.
Materials & Craftsmanship
The frame of this wall medallion is cast in solid brass, each element — the double ribbon-bow finial at the crown, the scroll-winged lateral accents at the sides, the hammered egg-and-dart border encircling the ceramic centre, and the bow-knot pendant drop below — individually modelled and finished by hand. The surface carries a warm metallic patina that catches light at every angle, revealing the depth of the casting and the texture of every carved detail. At the centre, a circular ceramic plaque is hand-painted with a lush floral bouquet: full-blown roses, delicate buds, and scattered petals arranged in the naturalistic style so beloved of Louis XVI period decorative arts. The ceramic surface is sealed with a protective glaze, ensuring colour permanence for decades of display.
Dimensions & Details
Measuring 28 cm in height by 14 cm in width, this wall medallion is proportioned to make an intimate yet impactful statement. Its compact scale makes it equally suited to a curated gallery wall arrangement, a bedroom vanity corner, an entrance hallway console vignette, or a reception room accent. A single discreet hanging point on the reverse allows for effortless wall mounting with no assembly required. Weight: 4 kg.
Handcrafted in Egypt
Every Brass & Wood wall medallion is produced in Egypt by craftsmen trained in classical European metalwork and decorative arts traditions.

Available in multiple brass finish variants — including Gold, Antique Gold, and Silver — this piece can also be customized to suit specific interior colour palettes. We take pride in delivering heirloom-quality decorative pieces that honor the legacy of European classical design.
