Camphor Chinese Decorative Wheels antiques original vintage authentic Tawainese

Description

If you value olde world craftsmanship, appreciate the beauty of classic Chinese characters and symbolism, want to enhance the charm of your home or business, this pair of authentic antique Chinese camphor wood wheels whose characters combine to express "Joy" (huan le) will interest you.
In addition to the classic characters, these handcrafted wheels express the five blessings of Chinese culture (health, long life, prosperity, love of virtue and the grace of a peaceful, natural death) signified by the symbolism of the revered bat.
Each measuring about 28 in. in diameter, they were purchased in Taipei in the mid 1990's when I was told they had been removed from a mainland home and carried to Taiwan during the exodus of Chinese Nationalists after WWII. They have graced my home in the US ever since, but it is now time for them to bring joy and blessings to a new environment.
