A large lacquered screen with ornate scenes of palace life on the front and flora/fauna on the back.
These are crafted from heavy wooden panels coated with multiple layers of dark lacquer. Artisans then carve into the surface—a technique known as kuan cai or "incised colors"—and fill the grooves with pigments and gold leaf.
Each panel is 16” w x 94” h
