This listing is for a Japanese two-panel folding screen (Byobu) featuring gold-tone decoration on a glossy black background.

It was made in Japan by a local doll artisan in Kagawa Prefecture. Based on its construction and decorative details, it appears to have been handcrafted, although the exact production method has not been confirmed.

The screen features iris flowers, floral motifs, gold-tone fittings, and delicate wooden latticework. The two panels are connected by hinges and can be folded or opened flat.
