Hand-carved wood sculpture, likely of Thai or Balinese origin; depicts scrolling acanthus or vine motifs radiating from a central lotus flower. Made of teak or mango wood, with gold leaf. The circular " mandala " pattern represents harmony and spiritual connection, often used in Boho, Zen. On a heavy base. It commands a room with eastern serenity
Based on a visual inspection of the image, here is an assessment of the object's material and potential value.
### 1. Is it plastic or wood?
**It is highly likely to be genuine wood (or a wood composite), not a plastic replica.**
Here are the visual clues that point to wood:
* **Texture and Grain:** If you look closely at the lighter, raised areas (especially on the central flower and the scrolling leaves), you can see a subtle wood grain texture. Plastic or cheap resin usually has a smoother, more uniform surface unless it is a very high-end cast.
* **The "Gilding" (Gold Rim):** The gold ring around the edge looks like gold leaf or gold paint applied over gesso (a primer used on wood). You can see cracking and flaking (especially near the top left) that is characteristic of aged paint on wood, rather than the molding seams or uniform shine you would see on plastic.
* **The Finish:** The dark recesses with the lighter highlights suggest an "antiqued" finish, where a dark stain or glaze was wiped over carved wood to highlight the depth. This is a traditional woodworking technique.
* **Imperfections:** The edges of the carving are slightly irregular. Mass-produced plastic items usually have very sharp, perfect edges from the mold. This has the slight softness and irregularity of hand-carving or machine-carved wood that has been sanded.
**Verdict:** This appears to be a **wooden decorative medallion** or wall plaque. It is possible it is a "composite" wood (like MDF) that has been carved and painted, which is common for this type of decor, but it is not a cheap plastic replica.
### 2. What is it?
This object is likely a **decorative wall medallion** or a repurposed **ceiling rose**.
* **Ceiling Rose:** Historically, these circular carvings were placed on ceilings around light fixtures (chandeliers).
* **Style:** The design features acanthus leaves and a central rosette, which is a classic motif found in Baroque, Rococo, and Neoclassical architecture.
* **Origin:** Items like this were very popular as home decor in the mid-to-late 20th century (1950s1980s). It has the look of imported decorative art (possibly from India, Indonesia, or Italy) intended for traditional home interiors. The stand it is sitting on looks like a modern, generic display stand, suggesting someone mounted a loose carving for display.
### 3. What is it worth?
If this is an authentic wooden carving, its value is generally in the range of **decorative art** rather than high-end antique fine art.
* **Estimated Value:** **$40 $120 USD.**
* **Why this range?**
* **Lower end ($30-$50):** If it is a mid-century mass-produced decorative item (common in thrift stores), it is valued mostly for its looks.
* **Higher end ($80-$150):** If it is a high-quality hand-carved piece, older (early 20th century), or if the carving is very deep and intricate, it could fetch more from a collector of architectural salvage.
**Summary:** It is a lovely piece of decor, likely real wood with a gold-leaf finish. While it is probably not a rare museum antique worth thousands, it is a solid, attractive object that would likely sell in an antique mall or on Etsy for roughly **$50 to $80**.

COLLECTIBLE Da Vinci Figurine: Pony on Wood Base
The Da Vinci Collection was a popular line of decorative
figurines and sculptures made from cold-cast resin or bonded marble, often
finished to resemble bronze, marble, or porcelain. These were produced mainly
in the late 20th century (1980s–1990s) Despite
the name, the pieces are not directly linked to Leonardo da Vinci, but rather
the branding suggested “classical European art.”
Horses were among the most popular subjects in the Da
Vinci Collection. They symbolized strength, beauty, and motion, making them
desirable as statement pieces in homes and offices. The wood base and nameplate
usually indicate it was sold as part of the premium line

Figurine Porcelain “Man Playing Violin,” rare, signed, made
in Japan. Kelvin’s Porcelain was an
American import brand, most active in the 1950s–1970s, during the post-WWII
boom in Japanese exports, reflecting European-inspired themes (musicians,
dancers, romantic couples, Rococo-style characters), but at more accessible
prices. The violinist is a classic theme in Kelvin’s line, highlighting
refinement, music, and artistry.
LIMITED PRODUCTION RUNS. PAINTED OR FINISHED BY A
SPECIFIC WORKSHOP ARTIST.
Post-war Japan became one of the world’s leading exporters
of porcelain, this violinist figurine is a great example of how
Japanese artisans blended European design influences with their own
craftsmanship, creating collectible pieces that still hold charm today.

"Oom Paul" Cast Iron Money BoxContrary to popular belief, the Gazelie banks were made around the same time as the Harper Banks. Other manufacturers saw the original Harper banks and identified a market that Harper was missing. And so they made their own semi-mechanical Transvaal Money Boxes – making the pipe thicker and movable. Whenever a coin is deposited into the top of Kruger’s hat, a lever makes his pipe jiggle up and down, surely a delight for kids of all ages! The inscription on the back was also slightly altered to “By permission of the proprietors of the Westminster Gazelie” for the exact same reason John Harper clearly printed Gazette on their banks. The new manufacturers didn’t want to have any copyright problems. The main differences between the original Harper money box and the Gazelie money box are the following: The pipe – The Harper money boxes have non-mechanical/ fixed pipes that are long and slender and point downwards. Whereas the Gazelie money boxes have semi-mechanical/ movable pipes that are thicker and point outward instead of down. The wording on the back – The Harper money boxes state Westminster “Gazette” on the back. Whereas the Gazelie money boxes state Westminster “Gazelie” on the back. Quality of the casting – The Harper money boxes seems to be a finer quality casting than the Gazelie money boxes. The inscriptions on the hat and back are more prominent and finely engraved on the Harper money boxes. The Harper money boxes also show a three line crease on the middle left hand side of Kruger’s jacket that is not found on the Gazelie money boxes. The holes underneath – The Harper money boxes have 18 holes in a clearly repeatable pattern. Whereas the Gazelie money boxes have 7 to 9 holes mostly drilled in random patterns. The price – The Harper money boxes are extremely rare and can fetch a hefty amount on auction. The Gazelie money boxes are more common, and although these are not considered to be originals, they are still antiques which hold value among cast iron/ money box collectors.
