The Gilded Terrace

Both a design gallery and the home to one of Chicago’s most passionate furniture collectors, The Gilded Terrace beckons visitors to explore their passion for decor, while demonstrating that any lovely item can be used in a ‘livable’ way. The setting is an eclectically decorated apartment within a 1920’s pre-war high-rise. The collection - some of which is available on Apartment Therapy - is a mixed display of Mid-Century Modern, Hollywood Regency, Chinoiserie & Oriental-chic, among various other period styles.

Description

Offered here is a divinely rare Oriental screen which was handcrafted in Hong Kong. This 6-paneled Coromandel screen is hand-carved and painted with a traditional Chinese Ming dynasty palace scene. To the reverse, there is representation of an Asian nature scene complete with birds and flowers. Brass capped feet complete the unique and magical design of this piece. Each panel is 16" wide, making the entire screen 8' in length when flat. The panels are 72" (6') tall.
