About the Item

This refined Florentine four-panel dressing screen, crafted in Italy during the 1940s, is a beautiful example of mid-20th-century decorative craftsmanship inspired by centuries-old Florentine traditions. Elegant and architectural in presence, the screen is richly finished in gilt, lending a luminous warmth that immediately elevates any interior. Each tall panel is finely detailed with classical Florentine motifs, including scrolling foliage, stylized urn forms, and symmetrical ornamental reserves. The gilded decoration is set within paneled borders that echo Renaissance and Baroque influences long associated with Florentine design. The repetition of the motifs across all four panels creates a harmonious and balanced visual rhythm, allowing the screen to function as both a practical furnishing and a decorative focal point. The generous height and narrow panel width make this piece especially versatile. It can be used as a dressing screen, room divider, privacy screen, or decorative backdrop, ideal for bedrooms, dressing rooms, salons, or boutique retail spaces. When fully extended, it offers dramatic vertical presence; when folded, it allows flexible placement and easy storage. Dimensions (each panel): 78 1/8" H × 20" W × 1 3/4" D Condition: Paint loss and minor surface scratches are present, consistent with age and use, and add to the screen’s authentic vintage character. A timeless and elegant Florentine gilt folding screen, perfect for interiors seeking classic Italian sophistication and decorative charm.
