Description
Vintage Byobu -4 panel hand-painted screen
Purchased from Tokyo, Japan circa. 1989. "Classic" landscape scene. Black and White.
The visible parts of the screen are in great condition for it's age. Dark brown wooden frame is still glossy. "Brass" decorative fittings are bright. The back of the screen is almost perfect, and there are no rips to the backing.
Screen is fairly large measuring 66" x 36" and is about 0.75" thick. The surface is not paper. I was told at the time it is painted on Gold Leaf.
