Description:
4-PANEL WOOD SCREEN - GOLD & BLACK ORIENTAL CHINESE COROMANDEL - $500(Osprey FL)To purchase or for more information email or call 941-504-XXXXExquisite Chinese Oriental 4-panel Coromandel Screen with intricately carved traditional tranquil garden scene with gold leaf background on front and finely detailed subtly colored nature scene on back panels. This screen is more valuable because it features important symbols of the culture - detailed domestic scenes with beautiful images and attractive people on the front and a traditional oriental nature scene with mountains, bamboo, and birds that signify good luck on the back. The colors are rich and the carving is deep - rare and unavailable in contempory designs. An exquisite room divider, privacy screen, or bed headboard. Displaying either side would create a dramatic, distinctive designer accent in your home. Measures 6 ft. tall X 64 n. wide (Each of the four panels is 16 inches wide.) THIS IS A HEAVY QUALITY WOOD SCREEN WITH AN INTRICATE, COLORFUL, UNIQUE DESIGN ON BOTH SIDES - UNLIKE ORIENTAL SCREENS ON THE MARKET TODAY. A dealer in Oriental screens has viewed the screen and verified its value.Coromandel screens are folding screens made of wooden panels covered with carved Chinese lacquer. The lacquer surface is carved away exposing a sub-stratum of white gesso which is painted to make a design. Screens have panels (or leaves) hinged together to form one vast, integrated composition. br> Why are Oriental lacquered screens called "Coromandel?" The screens became popular in Europe starting in the 17th century. They were shipped to Europe by way of India's Coromandel coast. The name derives from this point on the Country Trade Route.How do you judge the quality/value of a Coromandel screen? First consider the overall design: does the piece read well as whole? Next, look at the details: A complex, finely-detailed screen is usually considered of better quality than a simple, plain one. (Most Coromandels are carved both front and back with a detailed scene on the front side and a simpler--often floral scene--on the other.)
