Antique and Vintage Panelling
Originally made for functional use to reflect sunlight, reduce drafts and create shade, antique and vintage panelling and screens have expanded to be decorative elements.
The earliest known folding screens date back to the Zhou dynasty in China from the 4th to 3rd century B.C. Techniques for decorating leather and cloth turned panels into works of art. Through trade between the West and East, folding screens became popular in Europe during the Middle Ages. Screens imported in the 17th century from China and Japan were prized for their exoticism.
Panels today are still as practical as they are beautiful whether in large open spaces or for outdoor use. Screens create a sense of luxury and elegance and can match details like the wood trim of a room for a consistent look. They’re tasteful statement pieces you can use to showcase artwork or an intricate design while conveniently breaking up a room or filling a space that appears empty. Because of their vertical shape, panels draw the eye upward and can create the illusion of a higher ceiling and a more open room.
A vibrant screen can fulfill the same purpose as an accent wall, allowing you to play with color and light. You can use it as a surface to bounce light or add diffuse lighting behind it for a warm effect.
On 1stDibs, we offer screens and panels to help you create private spaces while introducing an object that evokes sophistication. Our modern panels include bold pieces that make strong statements, or you can opt for metal panelling to reflect light. If you’re looking for vintage items, neoclassical panelling is an ornate option.
