Ornate Inlaid Mother of Pearl Folding Screen
LES THÈMES
Antique Table Top Folding Screen with Mother of Pearl Inlay
An ornate object for display, this exquisite folding table screen is handcrafted from deep black lacquered panels, each meticulously inlaid with beautifully cut pieces of mother of pearl. Every panel reveals delicate scenes of florals and birds, bringing a quiet, natural beauty to any surface. Place a candle in front of the display and watch as the flickering flame brings the florals to life, dancing across the iridescent inlay. The folding structure allows for playful positioning, while for an even subtler presence, the screen can be reversed to showcase its matte blackish-brown back—a worn and cherished antique that carries both artistry and nostalgia.
