Antique Textile Sylvie Favorite

This is one Sylvie always keeps an eye out for. Found in Montpellier and dating to the early 20th century, this folding screen would have originally been used to divide space - creating privacy in shared rooms or shielding heat from a fire. Upholstered in a rich green fabric with nailhead trim tracing each panel, it has that softly worn surface that catches light differently across each fold. Sylvie loves it as a headboard - set just behind the bed where it catches the morning light.

Minor variations from the images may occur unless otherwise noted. All sales are final.

Notes from Sylvie:

Dear collector, this piece may show sun-faded color and a few loose threads. It’s all part of its age and character, just the way we like it. There is a small rip at the top of one panel and some creasing in the velvet. Width folded up: 29.25".
