A folding screen can be used for hundreds of years
Folding screens are a prominent feature of traditional Japanese indoor décor. Their original functions inside buildings were to block the wind and to shield from the eyes, but they are also excellent works of art in and of themselves.
This folding screen is a work of art created with natural materials such as wood and washi (Japanese paper) that allow the craftsman to make full use of his talents. The screen is resistant to changes in temperature and humidity. Such screens can maintain their shape for hundreds of years, as seen with many ancient screens that still exist to this day.
