A beautiful and highly decorative vintage Oriental two-fold screen, featuring an intricately carved dark wooden frame and striking floral panels with wonderful three-dimensional detailing.
The upper sections feature elaborate openwork carvings, whilst the main panels have a rich deep red border decorated with delicate floral and foliage designs. Set against the contrasting black background are raised flowers, birds and butterflies in beautiful cream and golden tones, creating a particularly eye-catching appearance.
The lower sections feature further detailed wood carvings, adding to the character and craftsmanship of this unusual piece.
The reverse is also decorated with floral detailing and small white heart motifs.
The screen folds flat for easier storage and stands on small castors, making it a versatile decorative piece for a living room, hallway, bedroom or oriental-inspired interior.
Condition
A solid and substantial vintage piece, displaying some age-related wear consistent with its character.
There is a small area of historic woodworm around the central upper finial, predominantly towards the reverse. This has been treated, with no significant structural damage.
The screen folds as intended, although care should be taken when positioning it, ensuring the castors are correctly aligned, as the piece has some weight and can tip if not positioned carefully.
Overall, a wonderfully decorative and characterful screen with beautiful carved detailing.
