Answer 1

Hi! I recently answered a question about oriental coromandel screens for someone else... maybe it will help you :

Know Coramandel lacquer screens? For pic of 17th 18th cent screen email [e-mail]. Thanks, oliver
I am sure this screen is either late seventeenth cent or early eighteenth. I sent photo to smithsonisn and they replied that it is probably l9th cent since most of them are, a simplistic approach at best. The last empress, the dowager grandmother is represented. It has a beautiful famille rose pallette, unusual. There seems to be so little actual scholarly information on this subject, one wonders why.

Hi! There is much information to be had about coromandel screens.. books, catalogues, etc., however, that being said... nothing can substitute for the information gleaned by just seeing them. The fine ones are works of art. It's all about details. If you are not near a museum that displays these treasures, search on the internet... I've supplied several links..and you will see that these grand pieces are like intricate and magnificent tapestries. I certainly would take the Smithsonian's appraisal seriously but if you are looking for further validation I would send my photos to Sotheby's and Christies. I wish you so much good luck!
