Incredible Large Antique Carved Wood Chinese Asian Table Screen

Description: This antique 19th Century Chinese wood table screen is a captivating example of traditional Chinese craftsmanship, adorned with rich gold accents that enhance its intricate design. Measuring 24 inches in height, 15 inches in width and 5.5 inches deep, this piece likely served both functional and decorative purposes, as table screens were often used to shield from drafts or to offer a degree of privacy while maintaining aesthetic appeal in domestic or scholarly settings. The central panel features a highly detailed relief carving, illustrating a narrative scene that draws from Chinese cultural or historical themes. The figures, depicted in traditional attire, appear engaged in a formal or ceremonial event, possibly a scene from a famous legend or a representation of a social hierarchy. The depth and precision of the carving demonstrate the artisan’s mastery, from the elaborate drapery of the clothing to the architectural elements that evoke classical Chinese rooftops and decorative motifs. Above the figures, natural elements like hanging lanterns and detailed foliage extend the visual storytelling, adding to the scene's dynamism. Surrounding the carved panel, an ornate border features a traditional Chinese geometric design, highlighted with gold gilding. The gold detailing, though aged, adds an elegant contrast against the dark wood, particularly around the floral motifs at the base, which appear stylized yet graceful. The footed stand itself is solid, anchoring the piece with a sense of stability while the scrolling designs on its legs and sides mirror the fluidity of the central scene, balancing both structural and decorative elements. Good antique condition age-related surface wear and signs of handling. Please review photos for further condition assessment. From an artistic perspective, this table screen can be appreciated for its harmonious blend of symbolism, craftsmanship, and function. The narrative carved into the wood is reflective of China’s deep cultural tradition of storytelling through art, and the use of gold suggests this piece may have belonged to an individual of considerable status. As a display item, this antique could be a striking focal point in a study or living room, adding an air of history and refinement to any space. Its timeless beauty makes it not only a collector’s treasure but also a functional work of art, connecting the past to present-day interiors. Shipping includes insures signature delivery service.
