Articulated screen by J. Baumann for Melun. Art Deco. France circa 1912-20.

This is the first model of this iconic screen made by Jomain Baumann. The presence of all the metal plates and Parisian phone numbers suggests that this example was manufactured between 1912 and 1922. We have found no evidence of a larger model. When unfolded, it measures three metres wide and stands upright with slight undulations, covering a width of 270 cm. Fully functional. No structural defects, apart from the visible signs of wear shown in the photos. It has been treated with a restoration product and is ready for use. Very good condition with clearly visible signs of use in the photos. Please see the detailed photos as they are part of the item description. Any existing defects (if applicable) are shown there.
