FAQs

Victorian folding screens, also known as draught screens or room dividers, gained prominence in 19th-century homes to block cold air currents and section off large living areas. They frequently featured gilded wood frames and fabric or glass panels, drawing inspiration from French Rococo and classical revival designs.

These screens typically feature carved softwood or hardwood frames coated with gesso and gold leaf gilding. The inset panels commonly incorporated heavy silk damask, brocade, woven tapestry, or glass, held together with double-action brass hinges.

Authentic period screens display hand-carved frame detailing, historic joinery methods, and natural wear or oxidisation to the gilt finish. The reverse side often retains period backing materials, and the brass hardware shows age-appropriate patina.

A four-fold screen can be positioned in an empty corner to introduce vertical height and texture, or set behind a sofa to frame a seating zone. It also serves as a functional backdrop in a bedroom or dressing area to screen off storage areas.

Dust the carved giltwood gently using a soft, dry feather duster or soft-bristled brush, avoiding liquid cleaners that can damage the delicate gesso layer. Fabric panels should be cleaned cautiously using a low-suction vacuum attachment.
