Rococo Triple Medallion Wall Hanging with Figural Porcelain Plates
Design & Inspiration
There is a particular kind of wall art that does not merely hang — it presides. This Rococo triple-medallion wall hanging brings the discipline of 18th-century French decorative arts into a vertical composition: three round gilded frames stacked in a column, each cradling a porcelain miniature depicting aristocratic salon scenes, the whole piece crowned at the top by a carved ribbon-and-dove crest and anchored at the base by a foliate shell cartouche. The result is a narrow, portrait-format panel that reads as a single sculptural statement from across the room.
Materials & Craftsmanship
The frames are cast and hand-finished in ornate resin gilded to a warm champagne gold, with richly modeled acanthus-leaf borders surrounding each circular opening. The connecting elements — the ribbon bow and floral crest at the top, the shell and leaf finial at the base — are integral to the casting, not applied separately, giving the piece a coherent sculptural unity. Each round opening houses a porcelain miniature plate reproducing genre scenes in the tradition of Fragonard and Boucher: elegantly dressed figures in 18th-century interiors, rendered in fine painterly detail against jewel-toned backgrounds. The porcelain inserts are handcrafted and fixed within the gilded frames to form a self-contained decorative panel requiring no additional assembly.
Dimensions & Details
Length: 60 cm / Width: 17 cm
This slim vertical format is designed for narrow wall panels, between doorways, in hallway niches, or flanking a console mirror. Three porcelain plates set into three round gilded medallion frames. Finished in a warm gilded tone. Available in Gold, Antique Gold, and Silver finishes.
Handcrafted in Egypt
Every piece leaving the Brass & Wood atelier in Egypt is individually finished by hand. The gilding is applied and buffed by craftsmen who understand that the warmth of a period piece comes from slight variation in tone — not from factory uniformity. The porcelain miniatures are inspected for detail and clarity before assembly. This is a luxury decorative object made to endure, not a mass-produced print.
Frequently Asked Questions

The frame and connecting ornamental elements are cast from high-density resin with a hand-applied gilded finish. The three circular inserts are porcelain miniature plates with hand-painted or fine-transfer figural scenes in the 18th-century European tradition.
Is assembly required?
No assembly is required. The piece arrives as a complete, ready-to-hang panel. A single wall hook or picture nail at the top crest is sufficient for installation.
