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.

Leather folding screens gained popularity in Europe during the 17th century, influenced by Spanish and Dutch leather craftsmanship. By the late 19th century, Victorian interiors frequently featured painted leather screens as both functional draught excluders and decorative canvases displaying botanical, avian, or classical scenes.

These screens typically feature a wooden structural frame stretched with hide leather. The surfaces were treated, primed, and hand-painted using oil paints, while the outer borders were commonly secured with brass upholstery tacks or studs.

Authentic period pieces display natural surface craquelure throughout the paint layers, authentic age-related oxidation on brass fixings, and wear along the panel hinges. The reverse often shows original canvas lining or aged leather with hand-stitched or hand-tacked fastenings.

A painted leather screen can be positioned in an empty corner to introduce height and textural warmth, or placed behind a sofa to serve as an architectural backdrop. It also functions well as an acoustic buffer and visual divider in open-plan living spaces.

Keep the screen away from direct sunlight, radiators, and damp environments to prevent the leather from drying or cracking. Dust gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and avoid using chemical cleaners or excessive liquid treatments on painted surfaces.
