Folding screens originated in ancient China during the Han dynasty before spreading to Japan and eventually Europe via trade routes in the 17th century, where they were prized as decorative panels and functional partitions.

Authentic folding screens typically feature solid hardwood frames such as mahogany, oak, or walnut, joined with mortise and tenon techniques, paired with hinged panels inset with fabric, paper, or carved wood.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the joinery, the type of hinges used (such as hand-forged or period brass hinges), the wear patterns on the wood, and the age-appropriate composition of the internal panels.

Maintain the piece by dusting the wooden frame with a soft, dry cloth, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners, and gently vacuuming fabric inserts with a brush attachment to protect the textiles from degradation.

A folding screen can be used to zone open-plan spaces, create a soft backdrop behind seating arrangements, or act as a sculptural element against a plain wall to introduce texture and pattern.
