    I believe this screen is Japanese, it has been with me for a few years now, bought online. It is hand painted, has signature on left panel, and folds up quite neatly. The screen stands approximately 3 - 4' high (I should have measured it) and a crane and waterlily scene in soft earth colours. The back of panels are covered similar to the pattern on the front borders. I hope you like it.

      Google for Japanese BYOBU :-)

      This would be relaxing

      Yes kyratango that's it of course ! Thanks for rattling my memory ! I do love the Japanese artwork and this one sits nicely in my bedroom and blends nicely with its soft colours. There use to be a lot around but the last couple of years have become less available and quite expensive (for me anyway) so I have missed out on some beautiful pieces. I measured up properly and it stands 35" x 59" (or 89cm x 150cm).

      What is a table screen, if I may ask? :)
    8. LuluX LuluX, 9 years ago
      Hi Kat (may I call you Kat?) you sure can ask ! I may not know the answer but ..... I can tell you a Table Screen is a very small/ miniature (about 12 inches wide x approx 6 inches high) decorative screen that was placed on the meal table. Not sure of purpose but decorative anyhow. Mine is not a table screen but known as a BYOBU as kyratango has reminded me, a "piece of furniture" that was used mainly to protect from cold draughts and were painted hand painted in beautiful colours and scenes. Some were gold laid depending on the wealth of the owner. (Note: no gold in mine) They also sometimes have like mine brass bracket to mount on the wall as an art piece. I'm open for correction. X
      Also, I posted a link of some embroidery works advertised on ebay fyi. Hope you can open the link. :)

      You may indeed, and thank you for your reply. :) As for the embroidery links, where are they posted?
    10. LuluX LuluX, 9 years ago
      I pasted into you Chinese Dragon Embroidery Post. The two advertised aren't nearly as nice as ours though.
    11. katherinescollections katherinescollections, 9 years ago
      Ah, okay, thanks, I'll take a look! :)
    12. katherinescollections katherinescollections, 9 years ago
      Hm. The post was removed. :( Thanks, LuluX, though, for thinking of me, very appreciated. :)

      Are you sure? I can still access your embroidery post. Have another go.:)
    15. LuluX LuluX, 9 years ago
      That's OK oldandsilly, easy to do. There have been some absolutely beautiful screens that have passed me by as no one seemed to want them 10 - 20 years ago but now even the reproductions are expensive ! :)
    16. katherinescollections katherinescollections, 9 years ago
      Hi Lulu, sorry been busy all the day, yes, the link doesn't work for me.

      OAS, thank you for explaining what a table screen is, I wondered. :)
