The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A painted folding screen is a freestanding, multi-panel room partition originally designed to reduce draughts and divide larger living quarters, often decorated with figurative or architectural oil paintings.

Traditional folding screens are typically constructed with internal timber frames wrapped in heavy canvas or leather, decorated with oil pigments, and finished with brass studded trim along the outer borders.

Authentic period screens display natural craquelure throughout the painted surfaces, hand-hammered brass tacks or studs, and signs of historical wear along the panel hinges and wooden framework.

A large painted screen can be placed in an empty corner, positioned behind a sofa, or set as a headboard alternative behind a bed to add vertical scale, historical depth, and architectural interest.

Dust the surface regularly using a clean, soft microfibre cloth, avoid placing the screen near direct heat sources or damp walls, and refrain from applying liquid polish or solvent cleaners to the painted areas.
