Description

The screen consisting of six panels, with a smaller and larger one set within each leaf, each smaller panel skilfully incised and gilt with a phoenix in flight amidst blossoming peonies and scrolling foliage, each larger panel with a lobed medallion enclosing a writhing dragon pursuing the flaming pearl amidst stylised clouds above a square cartouche enclosing a standing qilin beneath pine trees and jagged rocks, all reserved on a honeycomb diaper ground filled with flower heads and wan motifs, enclosed within a key-fret border and further cartouches alternating with bats and shou characters.
