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

In Chinese culture, folding screens, known as pingfeng, historically served both functional roles in blocking draughts and symbolic purposes, with dragon motifs representing power, strength, and good fortune.

Traditional Chinese screens were typically crafted from dense hardwoods such as rosewood, teak, or elm, constructed using mortise and tenon joinery without the use of metal fasteners.

Authentic historic pieces feature hand-carved relief details displaying subtle structural variations, natural patina within recessed carvings, traditional wood joinery techniques, and signs of natural timber age.

A carved folding screen functions as an architectural focal point when positioned against a neutral wall, placed behind a sofa, or used to define separate zones within open-plan spaces.

Dust regularly using a soft dry brush to clean recessed carved areas, maintain stable room humidity to prevent timber movement, and apply natural beeswax sparingly to preserve the wood surface.
