Vintage Chinese Embroidered Swivel Panel — Carved Wood, Convex Glass
This vintage Chinese swivel table screen features a hand-embroidered silk panel encased beneath convex glass, all set in an intricately carved solid wood frame and base. The round embroidery depicts a peaceful riverside village scene—arched bridge, tiled rooftops, and leafy trees—crafted with fine silk threads in subtle monochrome tones.
The circular centerpiece swivels within an ornate openwork frame, adorned with traditional cloud or dragon motifs. These table screens were popular in mid-20th century China as decorative accents, blending artistry with functional design.
A collectible piece that showcases traditional craftsmanship in wood, textile, and glass—ideal for display on a desk, console, or shelf.
Condition:
In good condition with wear consistent with age. Notable joint separation on the round wood frame, though it remains stable. Finish wear and surface scuffs visible on the base. Embroidery and glass remain intact and visually striking.
Dimensions:
12.5 x 12 x 2.25 inches (Height x Width x Depth)
Embroidery Diameter: 8.5 inches
Please Note: Soup Can Included in Photo for Scale
