Vintage Japanese Shoin Panel Set with Kumiko Lattice, Mid Showa 1946-1965 | SKU: 26J-0534

A matched set of four handcrafted Japanese interior panels featuring openwork kumiko lattice above carved lower wood panels.

This set of four vintage Japanese shoin panels presents a refined balance of geometry and carved detail. Each panel is built with a solid outer frame, an upper section of intricate kumiko lattice in a stepped rectilinear pattern, and a lower solid wood panel with a softly carved cloud-like cartouche. The lattice is backed with aged translucent paper, giving the panels a gentle layered texture while still emphasizing the precision of the woodwork. The warm wood tones and variation across the hand-carved lower sections add depth and character consistent with traditional Japanese architectural joinery.

Ideal for decorative reuse, these panels can be displayed as wall art, incorporated into a custom interior installation, or used as accent pieces in a Japandi, wabi-sabi, or traditional-inspired space. Their narrow scale also makes them suitable for lining a hallway wall, framing a doorway project, or serving as distinctive architectural salvage elements in a renovation or design studio setting.
