A hallmark of Qing-dynasty domestic architecture, hand-carved lattice panels such as these were originally used in provincial courtyard homes to allow light and air into a room while maintaining privacy.

Made of southern elm, known as jumu, the lattice screens are framed by detailed carved panels of floral arrangements and grand hanging bells. Different from carving or perforating wood, the art of making a lattice was an exacting craft. Requiring expert woodworking skills, the screen was created by precisely interlocking long and short pieces of carved jumu. With a timeless triangular lattice pattern, this set of panels brings room-defining geometry to a modern context. Panels can be connected with hinges to form a free-standing folding screen.

“PAGODA RED was extremely supportive in helping to pull accessory options together for the Lake Forest Showhouse. After providing them with details and our vision on how we were looking to finish our space, Laurene helped curate options that made it easy for us to edit and finalize. It's also no surprise that the unique pieces we used in our showhouse space were some of the first to sell.”
