About the Item
This vintage four-panel Chinese folding screen features a richly worked black lacquer ground adorned with finely painted polychrome floral motifs, framed throughout by ornate gilt borders. Each panel is vertically composed, presenting a dense garden of flowering plants rendered in soft creams, warm yellows, muted reds, and cool blue-grey tones, creating a balanced rhythm across the full width of the screen.
The decoration draws from traditional Chinese botanical imagery, with layered blossoms, scrolling foliage, and occasional butterflies enlivening the dark lacquer surface. The background shows a subtle craquelure typical of lacquerwork of this period, adding depth and visual texture rather than detracting from the composition. Borders are meticulously detailed with repeating geometric and foliate patterns in gold, crisply defining each panel and lending the screen a strong architectural presence.
The palette is restrained yet luminous against the black ground, making the screen equally suited as a dramatic focal point or as a refined backdrop in an interior. It works well behind a sofa or console, as a room divider, or mounted flat against a wall for a more graphic presentation.
This is a decorative, vintage Chinese screen made using traditional lacquer techniques, valued for its scale, surface richness, and painterly detail. It bridges classical Chinese ornament with a timeless decorative appeal, making it appropriate for both traditional interiors and more eclectic, design-forward spaces.
