The Midnight Peacock: A Mid-Century Tales of Golden Elegance

​Step back in time to the 1970s, an era when the western world was deeply captivated by the timeless beauty of traditional Japanese artistry.


​Set against a dramatic, high-gloss midnight black porcelain backdrop, a magnificent golden peacock rests gracefully amid a lush garden of blooming pink peonies and delicate white blossoms. In Japanese culture, the peacock is a symbol of protection, guidance, and beauty, while the peony represents royalty, honor, and prosperity.

Every leaf, feather, and petal is outlined in brilliant gold gilding, designed to catch the ambient light of a room and create a sense of living, breathing art.
