Art Deco Crane Screen/ Room Divider
Out of all of the screens we’ve had in our showroom this might be my favorite. The way the feathers could double as fish scales…the teal and pops of red…the way the gold shines when the sun hits it and how it flashes a sheen at night…just magnificent. We believe this is from the 1940’s, and it has lived many lives before it reached our hands so it is in fair condition. It is structurally sound and looks great from both sides but there is significant chipping on the wood as shown in photos and wear on both sides. Because of this we have the price $1000 below what we usually sell these for. In Asian culture cranes are symbolic of luck, hope, purity, and peace. In Greek mythology these mystical birds are said to be messengers of the Gods. Dimensions: Each of the 4 panels are 16” wide and height is 6’
