【Product details】

This pair of six-panel folding screens from the Showa period features a refined champagne-gold metallic ground, with a tone that sits between a deep, rich gold and a lighter, pale gold. The soft, elegant sheen creates a warm and balanced backdrop that works beautifully in both traditional and modern interiors.

These screens are typically used behind Hina dolls and other seasonal displays, but their subtle golden presence also makes them ideal as backgrounds for sculptures, ornaments, and interior arrangements throughout the year.

Light age-related wear is present, including scuffs, minor stains, small scratches, and areas of wear to the metallic surface and lacquer. Please refer to the photos for further details.

They come in their original cardboard storage box, which may be used as part of the packing materials.

Dimensions: approx. H 39 cm W 73.2 cm D 1.2 cm

Thank you for your interest, and happy bidding!
