Antique Carved Hardwood Indian Screen

1900 - 1920

Sold by Rams Head Antiques

Description

This is very decorative Indian hardwood three fold screen from around 1910 which has a lovely colour and a very attractive design. The screen is beautifully inlaid throughout with mother of pearl and has beautiful decorative mashrabiya beaded panels. It has attractive calligraphic carving in an eastern script and interestingly, a small enclave with a door which can be opened to convene with someone on the opposite side of the screen or to house a candle or lamp. The screen is a really pretty decorative item that adds character to any room setting. It is very much in the Arts and Crafts Liberty style and could possibly have been retailed by them.

The screen is 192 cms high and the panels measure 60 cms wide.

You are very welcome to view the item or to call and collect.
