Hand-Cut Metal Room Divider with Animal Motifs, c. early 20th Century

A striking four-panel metal room divider, crafted with hand-cut animal silhouettes in repeating rows.

Each panel is framed in black wrought iron, joined by riveted hinges, and features a central band of diamond latticework for contrast. The silhouettes - horses, camels, dogs, and other animals - add a folk-art charm that feels both sculptural and playful.

This versatile piece functions beautifully as a privacy screen, a dramatic decorative backdrop, or as an architectural accent in a living space, studio, or retail environment. Its presence is bold yet full of character, making it a unique statement piece.
