Entirely covered front and back in natural parchment dyed by hand in the unmistakable golden shades of honey, it is an emblematic example of Tura's extraordinary craftsmanship and sophisticated aesthetics.
The screen is divided into four panels mounted on burnished brass hinges, each characterized by a curved shape in the upper part, which alternates semi-circular modules with a sculptural graphic rhythm.
The sequence of arches and vertical solids creates a highly refined visual movement, transforming the object into a three-dimensional work of art capable of dialoguing with the architecture of the space.
The parchment surface is mirror-polished, as per Aldo Tura tradition, returning vibrant reflections and unique chromatic depths: each panel is a material, alive and iridescent landscape.
The warm and luminous palette gives the piece a sophisticated and timeless presence, ideal for representative environments, boutique hotels or high-end collectors' interiors.
Tura's production of screens is extremely limited, making this piece an absolute rarity on the market.
The work perfectly embodies the designer's philosophy: to blend functionality and theatricality, luxurious materials and bold shapes, in creations that go beyond the concept of furniture to become applied art.
