Superb French screen with three panels in wood gilded with gold leaf, the panels have been covered both front and back with a sumptuous damask fabric finished with trimmings. In the side panels, at the top to facilitate the passage of light from one side to the other has been placed a series of finely ground glass, while on the central one there is an oval, surrounded by rich and valuable leaf decorations performed with the method a pastiglia, in which is inserted an oil painting on paper protected by a ground glass. The painting represents an idyllic country scene with a boy and a girl surrounded by flowers and a pretty sheep. The wooden part of the whole screen is decorated with refined and wise Empire style carvings. The screen was made in Louis XVI style between 1920 and 1925 by skilled and experienced cabinetmakers in a workshop in the French town of Liffon-le-Grand. The antique screen comes from a long and ancient oriental tradition and has accompanied the changes of life and taste in France through the centuries. This screen, an object of extreme elegance, an expression of grandeur and luxury, becomes a superb classic element for any room in your home. On the wooden structure, we have not decided to make any restoration because its superficial veiled patina and its small imperfections make it really seductive and fascinating and attest to the antiquity and authenticity.
