About the collection

Screens & Room Dividers

Antique and vintage Asian panels, screens, and room dividers bring craftsmanship and history into contemporary spaces. From hand-carved latticework to lacquered coromandel and painted wood, these originals from China, Japan, India, and Southeast Asia add scale, texture, and narrative to foyers, living rooms, and hospitality environments. Explore our curated selection of panels, screens, and room dividers to find statement pieces with rich patina and character.

Designers use freestanding screens to define zones, soften sightlines, and frame architectural moments. Wall-mount a lattice panel as art, float a folding screen behind a sofa to create depth, or repurpose antique doors as a headboard. Materials range from elm, teak, and rosewood to gilt, lacquer, and metal fittings, with surface details- relief carving, painted landscapes, inlaid motifs - that reward close viewing and elevate everyday rooms.

Style them with complementary accents for a layered look. Pair a carved screen with reflective pieces from framed art and mirrors, add warm pools of light from lamps and lighting, and finish with sculptural texture from found objects and carvings or collected storage from baskets and boxes. These combinations highlight proportion, silhouette, and finish while keeping the screen as the focal point.

Every piece is one of a kind, selected for integrity and presence, with dimensions that suit residential and commercial projects alike. Whether you are shaping an entry, creating privacy in an open plan, or anchoring a vignette, browse the full collection of Asian panels and room dividers to discover antique and vintage designs ready for inspired interiors.

FAQ's About Our Collection

A folding screen consists of hinged sections that stand independently, while room divider is the broader functional term for a piece used to separate space. A decorative panel may have been wall-mounted or architectural and might not stand safely on its own. Hinges, feet, backing, dimensions and construction help determine intended use.

Measure the available width and ceiling height, remembering that folding screens become narrower as their panels angle for stability. Review hinge direction, feet, panel weight and decoration on both sides. A decorative panel without suitable hinges or supports should not be treated as a freestanding divider.

Move a screen with two people when size or weight requires it, supporting the frame rather than pulling on panels or hinges. Keep painted, lacquered, paper, textile and wood surfaces away from direct sun and moisture. Open panels gradually and avoid forcing stiff or misaligned hardware.
