Baleri Italia Cartoons Low Screen in White Paper by Luigi Baroli
Located in Milano, Lombardia
Cartoons creates a spatial division that is baroque and minimalist at the same time. The idea of the screen is a sublime mystification: a wall that is not a wall. Corrugated cardboard, a humble but reliable material, is presented in a very refined technology. Two sheets of cardboard, positioned side by side, ensure the maximum ease in rolling and unrolling the screen and are couplet to a free-standing structure. Screen with free-standing structure in corrugated cardboard extracted from pure cellulose, available in two configurations, height 170 cm with 40÷400 cm extension or height 150 cm with 40÷300 cm extension. Upper and lower edge in technopolymer in matt black. Terminal stiffening components in brushed diecast aluminium. Born near Milan in 1951, after a degree in architecture at Politecnico he has worked mainly in the field of interior design, although jewellery design was another major interest. In 1994 he won the Compasso d’Oro award for Cartoons screen...

A testament to the fascination with the Orient that characterized this era, this piece combines artistic prowess with functional elegance in a way that is both rare and captivating.

Antique and Vintage Screens and Room Dividers

Whether they are implemented as decorative accents or makeshift partitions to ensure privacy, antique and vintage folding screens and room dividers easily introduce sophistication and depth to any space in your home.

The earliest examples of folding screens are said to have originated in China and go back at least as far as the Han dynasty. Screens of the era were heavy structures made of wood and had hinges of cloth or leather. They were adorned with elaborate landscape paintings that were typically created on silk or paper canvases and applied directly to the screen’s panels afterward. Just as they had been in the 20th century and today, the folding screens then were recognized for both their practical and purely decorative properties.

Japanese room-divider screens were also decorated with paintings but constructed to be lightweight and mobile. They took on considerable event-based importance when the structures gained popularity in the East Asian country, as the folding screens were used in performing arts such as concerts, tea ceremonies and more. Later, artists elsewhere warmed to folding screens and sought to create their own.

In European countries such as France, where they were known as paravent, folding screens began to materialize in apartments in Paris, gaining favor with the likes of pioneering couturier Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel, who is said to have accrued more than 30 and used them as a precursor to what we now know as wallpaper.

On 1stDibs, find a wide range of antique and vintage folding screens and room dividers, which, given their history, may do a better job of bringing people and cultures together in your home than sectioning off a space. Search by material to find options in metal, fabric or wood, or browse by style for mid-century modern designs and examples from the Art Deco era.
