Characterized by its meticulous straw marquetry, this four-panel folding screen showcases a refined geometric rhythm achieved through the precise alignment of natural fibers, resulting in a dynamic play of light across its diamond-patterned surfaces. The warm, honey-toned wood veneer is enhanced by a rich varnish that accentuates the tonal variations of the straw inlay, assembled in fan-like formations that converge into sculptural motifs.
Designed by Jean-Michel Frank and produced by Comte S.A. in Buenos Aires during the 1930s, the screen is a testament to their celebrated collaboration, which brought French modernist aesthetics into dialogue with South American craftsmanship and materials.
