Presenting a unique set of early 20c hand painted medium sized ceiling or wall panels by Nena Claiborne.
Art Nouveau/Deco Era hand-painted ceiling or wall panels by Dallas Interior Design Legend……..Nena Claiborne…… circa 1929/30.
These panels are in great Original condition.
They were custom designed and hand-gilded and hand-painted by Nena Claiborne for the Obenchain Family when they built their Mansion on Armstrong Parkway in Highland Park, TX in 1929.
Ms. Claiborne was the interior designer for that home and she was also attached to early Neiman Marcus.
She also did an original hand-painted mirror (also in our collection).
These panels were on the Ceiling of the Library in the Armstrong Pkwy Mansion.
There are 2 different designs and sizes of these panels.
There are the medium sized ones ( 48 x 24) and the larger ones (61 x 24 ) are listed separately on this site.
The panel on the left features a series of turquoise armorial shields with a gold cross band and French Royal Golden Crowns, all contained within diamond shaped sections and hand painted borders.
The panel on the right features a series of golden Fleur de Lis and Green Flower heads with gold central stem, all contained within diamond shaped sections and hand painted borders.
We have 14 of the larger and 14 of the medium panels (28 in total) ….. 7 of each pattern in both sizes.
We are selling them in pairs of both designs.
