Crackle Lacquered Folding Screen The beauty of the Crackle Lacquered Folding Screen lies in its unique cracked sunburst effect which is achieved by indenting the ceramic glaze at strategic points. Complete with brass borders, the folding screen adds nuanced style to a room. |

Grooved Glass Screen Grandiose in size, the Grooved Glass Screen takes a step further from the common reflective material by adding bevels into the mirrored surface for a visual double take. Each of its six panels is framed in a dark brown ash wood finish to ground the look. |

Red Chinoiserie Screen The Red Chinoiserie Screen features four walnut framed panels with a hand painted Chinoiserie style floral motif, which is repeated on both sides. The screen is raised on patinated brass feet to further add to the resplendent design. |
