Chinese Export Red Lacquer Folding Screen - Ca 1980
This striking Chinese export red lacquer folding screen is a bold decorative piece, beautifully finished in rich cinnabar tones and adorned with delicate gilt detailing. One side presents an intricate narrative scene of traditional Chinese life, with figures gathered in pavilions and gardens, evoking a sense of refinement and storytelling that draws the eye across each panel. The finely rendered architecture and landscapes are framed by elegant borders, creating a cohesive and highly decorative composition.
The reverse offers a more understated aesthetic, featuring scattered floral and botanical motifs set against the deep red lacquer ground. This dual-sided design allows for versatility in placement, whether used as a room divider or as a dramatic backdrop. Hinged panels provide flexibility, making it easy to adapt to different spaces while adding warmth, colour, and a sense of classic Chinese artistry to an interior.
