About this piece

Antique Chinese elm lattice screen

In traditional Chinese houses, lattice screens had a particular function: they let light and energy circulate while preserving privacy. This one continues that art of living with timeless elegance.

Its remarkable geometric trellis, finely carved and underlined by a deep red lacquer, composes a true play of shadow and light. More than a piece of furniture, it is an element of interior architecture able to structure a space with lightness and refinement.

Used as a bookcase, display cabinet, room divider or simply as a decorative object, it can also be reinvented as a dressing-room front, wardrobe door or custom cupboard door, immediately bringing the charm and refinement of Asian houses to a contemporary interior.

A rare piece that combines the beauty of ancestral know-how with a surprising modernity.

A piece that does not merely occupy space: it transforms it.

Solid elm, carved and lacquered openwork panels, low sliding storage doors.
Asian elegance at its most timeless.
