Pair of Vintage Wood Wall Plaques, Psalms and Peter. Depicts children. They measure 7 1/2" by 5 1/2" and 7" by 5 1/2". Excellent condition but small chip on the back of one of them, noted in photo.
This charming pair of vintage wooden wall plaques features a cohesive and nostalgic design perfect for a nursery or a traditional home gallery. Each plaque is crafted from wood with detailed, scalloped "wavy" edges and showcases a sweet illustration of a young boy in classic mid-century attire. One plaque depicts the boy looking at a bird’s nest with the verse "For He careth for you" (1 Peter 5:7), while the other shows him reaching toward a dragonfly with the text "For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting" (Psalm 100:5).
The larger plaque measures 7.5 inches by 5.5 inches, and the smaller one is 7 inches by 5.5 inches, making them a well-balanced duo for hanging. These pieces capture the gentle, spiritual folk art style that was popular in the mid-20th century for children’s spaces. The natural wood grain and warm tones of the finish add a rustic, timeless character to the artwork. Whether added to a collection of religious artifacts or used to decorate a peaceful living space, these plaques serve as a quiet reminder of faith and New England-style craftsmanship.
The items in this listing are vintage, over 50 years old. While the items appear to be in excellent condition, there is a small chip on the back of one plaque as noted in the photos, and there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw, I would reach out prior to sending it.
