Own a piece of imperial history — in miniature.

This large-format Byōbu folding screen is a stunning double-sided replica of two of the most celebrated works in East Asian art history, both originally created during China’s Song Dynasty and beloved in Japanese imperial court culture.

✦ Two Iconic Masterpieces, One Screen

• Side A — “Auspicious Cranes” — Inspired by Emperor Huizong’s legendary painting depicting a flock of white cranes soaring above the imperial palace rooftop against a vivid blue sky. A symbol of divine blessing, longevity, and imperial grace. Paired with classical calligraphy script that adds scholarly depth to the composition.
• Side B — “Five-Color Parakeet” — A delicate gongbi (fine-line) painting of a brilliantly colored parrot perched on a blossoming plum branch, surrounded by elegant calligraphy. A timeless symbol of beauty, vitality, and refined taste.
