Antique Wood Louvered Shutter – Multi-Layer Patina with Split Louvers 54 ½" T x 16 ½" W x 1 ¼" D

Description :
This tall wood shutter showcases a striking example of weathered charm and aged utility. Measuring 54 ½" T x 16 ½" W x 1 ¼" D, it features split upper and lower louvered sections, allowing varied ventilation historically. The front displays a chocolate brown finish over weatherworn louvers, while the reverse reveals layers of exposed paint—green, cream, and cobalt—flaked with time. Though a few slats are broken and edges are chipped, its authentic patina makes it ideal for reuse in rustic wall decor, upcycled headboards, or architectural restoration projects that value texture and age over uniformity.
