Antique Furniture |
|
 Each week we highlight a new and interesting
piece of antique Chinese furniture!
Large Chinese Four Panel Screen with Inset Stone
Chinese folding screens, which served originally as
partitions painted with serious works, were not intended to
be moved around fre¬quently. As with most Asian things there
is symbolism in everything in the painting. For instance this
crane stands for long life because of their long necks, the
plum tree in the painting is first to flower, and therefore
symbolizes new beginning and fertility.
