Description

This monumental eight-panel Coromandel screen is a breathtaking example of traditional Chinese artistry and mid-century Chinoiserie style. Masterfully hand-carved using the centuries-old incised lacquer technique, the screen features a sprawling, panoramic narrative landscape set against a deep noir ground. The central scene depicts a bustling village with an architectural arched bridge, merchant vessels navigating a tranquil harbor, and spirited horses galloping through stylized mountain peaks. Intricate gilded Greek key borders and symbolic still-life vignettes at the base add layers of sophisticated detail, creating a commanding focal point for any high-end interior. Measuring an impressive 128" wide, 0.75" deep, and standing 84" tall, this versatile room divider functions perfectly as a high-impact wall installation or a regal backdrop for a formal dining room. It is in great vintage condition, exhibiting minor surface scuffs and age-appropriate character marks that manifest as a beautiful, authentic patina. The reverse side is elegantly finished with hand-painted bamboo motifs, offering two distinct aesthetics to suit your space. This rare and soulful architectural treasure is a must-have for the discerning collector looking to elevate their home with global history. We invite you to add this exceptional find to your collection today.
