Mid-Century Monkey Pod Leaf Dish & Japanese Bamboo Wall Plaques

This set consists of three distinct vintage wooden items, likely used as accent pieces in a "Tiki" or "Orientalist" themed home:

Hand-Carved Leaf-Shaped Serving Dish: This is a classic two-compartment "Monkey Pod" wood tray. It measures approximately 12 inches in length. These were commonly used for serving nuts, candies, or as a "catch-all" tray for keys and coins. The wood is prized for its wavy grain and warm, honey-gold finish.

Japanese Bamboo Wall Plaques (Pair): These are decorative vertical hangings measuring approximately 24.5 inches tall.

Construction: They feature a "faux-bamboo" or textured wood frame with traditional Japanese artwork (one featuring a bird with chrysanthemums, the other a black cat).

Markings: The red stamps (hanko) and calligraphy on the artwork indicate a Japanese origin.

Details: The frames feature decorative "cut-outs" at the top and bottom, which are characteristic of mid-century Asian export art.

Consistent with age and use.
