HUH ?

CREAM LACQUER or BLACK
W54", D11⁄2", H72".

"This handsome, three-panel screen offers the perfect canvas for lacquer, a highly regarded art form used in China for over 6,000 years. 'No Name' uses true organic lacquer made of translucent sap collected from trees (rhus verniciflua) that are indigenous to East Asia. Hand-applying 60 coats of cream lacquer over each panel, and hand-sanding each layer in between, results in unmatched visual depth and richness. These irregularities allow light to dance off of each towering panel. The screen is finished on both sides and features white bronze hinges. Each screen is signed, numbered and dated."


So what do you think ?

  1. I appreciate the detailed process of creating the screen, but in no way would I ever justify the cost. It's purchases such as those that make me nuts. After my husbands recent job loss, I think excess no more (well never really did but would of liked too!) Sanity & a healthy bank account are so more important!

  2. 60 coats? Hmm. Maybe it's better in person. From the photo, it looks like something you could buy at Ikea.

  3. Ummm, no thank you. Like DT said, I aappreciate the hard work and skill involved, but no. I'd rather use those funds another way. Interesting.
