Ecran à main à la forme chantournée. Peinture sur soie, XIXème siècle
- Hand screen with scalloped shape. Painting on silk, decoration with a coat of arms motif (blazon with 3 gold-colored hands on a red background) surmounted by a crown and then a grilled helmet, all surrounded by foliage. Carved and gilded turned wooden handle.
- The hand screen is a domestic accessory that was once reserved for the interior of bourgeois and aristocratic dwellings. Also called cheek guard, spark guard, face screen, it allows those who stand near a fireplace to protect their face from the heat of the fire. It is thus a sort of portable complement to the fireplace screen. This accessory belongs to the closed world of boudoirs and small apartments, used daily in winter.
- In the state, four small holes are to be noted. Height: 43cm
