Various sizes e.g., 119cmX 100 cm x 3.5cm In traditional Chinese architecture, antique wooden doors and windows are symbols of Chinese culture and art. Long ago, the Chinese people had their wishes and blessings engraved onto window frames. The main role of the window frames is to “put soul into the art” of a building. Whether portraying a piece of history or a landscape, every exquisite window frame has become an artistic crystallisation of Chinese traditional culture. In the history of world architecture, the beauty of traditional Chinese wooden architecture is unique. If window frames are likened to be the eyes of a building, then it will be no exaggeration to say that Chinese architecture has the most beautiful eyes in the world. When a traditional Chinese home is demolished to make way for more a contemporary design, elements like antique window screens and carved panels are typically salvaged to be reborn as decorative items in modern homes. Made from Chinese Elm these fretwork window panels are natural brown in colour and rectangular in shape and filled with a traditional Chinese geometric design. Window panels gave an element of privacy, during the summer they were left uncovered but in winter they were covered with paper to retain the warmth within the house. These antique Chinese window panels are a wonderful way to cover a window, accessorise a blank wall, hang above a sideboard, fireplace, or as a stunning headboard.
