How do I hang a heavy panel?

Wall plaques and temple panels require secure fixing to solid wall studs or appropriate masonry anchors due to their substantial hardwood and lacquer weight. Professional framing or hanging battens help distribute the load evenly across the structure of the panel. Avoid hanging pieces in direct sunlight or areas subject to high humidity changes, as fluctuating environmental conditions can affect the stability of the wood and lacquer.

What is Coromandel lacquer?

Coromandel work involves coating a wooden substrate in numerous layers of dark lacquer, carving the design into the surface, and filling the recesses with colours or gold leaf. The style became popular for export screens and panels shipped through European trading companies. These pieces often feature pictorial narratives, landscapes, or court scenes rendered with distinct layered depth.

Can folding screens be separated?

Folding screens consist of multiple panels joined by hinges, designed to function as an integrated whole. Disabling the hinges to separate them alters the original format and can compromise the edge finish of individual leaves. Most buyers display them fully extended or partially folded to appreciate the continuous narrative across the panels.

How do I date a Japanese screen?

Dating relies on stylistic markers, construction methods, and materials, with Meiji period pieces often showing distinct naturalistic carving and refined bone inlay. Examining the joinery and the condition of the lacquer layers helps distinguish nineteenth-century production from later twentieth-century interpretations. Documentation or historical trade labels, where present, provide additional chronological context.
