Made with very fine silk embroidery that is almost transparent, the picture of the bird and flowers have been skillfully embroidered to be the same image on each side of the panel without any joins or discrepancies in the stitching - identical on both sides.
The silk is in very good condition.
There is a concave, hand blown glass screen on each side that fits neatly into the wooden frame.
The wooden frame is constructed of six smaller panels skillfully jointed to form a perfect circle and this rotates within the stand. The stand is also hand carved and jointed.
There is a Chinese four character signature seal embroidered into the silk.

The condition is very good. There are some signs of age but no damage or tears or chips. There is a thin brown mark at the top of the silk inside the glass as shown in the last picture, this looks as if some if the silk has dropped away from the inside the frame. The wood casing and stand, glass and embroidery are in excellent condition.
