Its intricate craftsmanship and warm, reddish-brown tones make it a true statement piece that bridges the gap between functional furniture and fine art.

​Detailed Description & Features
​Artisanship: The screen features exhaustive pierced carving (Jali work), where the wood is cut entirely through to create a delicate, lace-like effect. This allows light to filter through, creating beautiful shadow patterns in a room.
​Motifs: The design is dominated by botanical and floral patterns, specifically featuring acanthus leaves and scrolling vines. The central panels often showcase a "Tree of Life" or arched mihrab-style silhouette craftsmanship.

​Material: It appears to be craftedfrom Teak, known for its durability, natural resistance to decay, and rich, variegated grain.

​Structure: It is a four-panel folding screen joined by brass or iron hinges. Each panel is topped with a scalloped, crown-like decorative crest, adding height and elegance.

​The Story: A Hidden Treasure Rediscovered
​For years, this masterpiece has been tucked away, resting quietly in the shadows of a spare room, draped in a protective sheet like a secret waiting to be told. It wasn't hidden out of neglect, but out of a deep respect for its beauty—waiting for the right moment, or perhaps the right space, to truly shine again.
​Every time I caught a glimpse of the rich wood grain peeking out, I am reminded of the hands that spent hundreds of hours carving every vine and leaf. I've kept it safe, preserved in its vintage glory, but a piece this soul-stirring wasn't meant to be "tucked away." It was meant to be the centerpiece of a home where faith, family, and art converge.

​Now, the time has come to pass the torch. If you are looking for that specific home discussion piece and vintage accent—and if you're someone like myself, who doesn't just see a "room divider," but someone who appreciates the history etched into the wood. Its my wish that it to go to a home where it can finally stand tall, catch the afternoon sun, and be a conversation starter for years to come. See less
