Folding screens originated in ancient China before spreading to Europe via trade in the late seventeenth century, where they became prized status symbols for partitioning spaces and adding dramatic flair to formal rooms.

Traditional screens typically feature solid hardwood frames, such as oak or walnut, joined with metal hinges and inset with decorated panels of canvas, leather, wood, or hand-painted paper.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the hand-carved details, the type of joinery and hinges, natural material ageing, and the presence of period-correct wear patterns along the base and folds.

An antique screen functions effectively as a textural backdrop behind a sofa, a creative method to zone open-plan areas, or a striking visual feature against a plain wall.

Preservation involves keeping the timber away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting gently with a soft dry cloth, and avoiding chemical polishes that can degrade historic finishes.
