Vintage 1960s Chicago-Made Carriage Silhouette Plaques -Set of Two
Step back to the sophisticated nostalgia of the Mid-Century with this charming pair of framed silhouette plaques. A quintessential example of 1960s wall decor, these pieces were Made in Chicago and expertly capture the timeless elegance of traditional Victorian silhouette art.
Each plaque features a highly detailed black-on-tan print of a horse-drawn carriage scene—one depicting a genteel couple in a classic buggy, and the other showing a lively coach and team in motion. The stark contrast of the silhouettes against the aged patina background creates a delicate yet striking visual effect.
The prints are beautifully mounted in square, faux-wood frames (likely molded resin/plastic) with an inner circular molding that perfectly highlights the image. The coordinating decorative brass-tone metal easel is included, allowing one plaque to be instantly displayed on a desk, bookshelf, or mantel.
These plaques offer a perfect blend of classic design and Mid-Century vintage charm, making them ideal for adding a touch of rustic Americana or traditional warmth to a gallery wall, study, or foyer.
