“Where time pauses and harmony unfolds.”

This refined four-panel mother-of-pearl folding screen brings to life one of Korea’s most cherished traditional motifs: the crane and pine (송학문). A timeless emblem of longevity and virtuous companionship, this elegant composition depicts cranes in mid-flight and repose beneath an ancient pine tree—each feather, branch, and needle rendered in shimmering, hand-cut mother-of-pearl.

The pine tree, evergreen through winter’s trials, symbolises resilience and integrity. The crane, graceful and monogamous, is a revered icon of harmony, longevity, and loyal partnership. Together, they form a visual poem—an artwork not just to be admired, but to be lived with.

Measuring approximately 40 cm in total width, this compact folding screen is ideal for tabletop display or decorative shelving. Despite its modest size, it radiates presence, drawing the eye with subtle iridescence that shifts with changing light.

Each panel reveals a different vignette: a pair of cranes by a calm pond, others dancing mid-air, and a gnarled pine stretching protectively above them. The craftsmanship is meticulous. Every sliver of shell is hand-laid, ensuring that no two panels—or pieces—are ever exactly alike.

Unlike mass-produced decor, this piece carries the quiet imperfection of human touch. The hand-polished lacquer finish and slight variations in hue whisper of the artisan’s presence. These marks of individuality invite deeper connection and appreciation.

Whether gifted to a couple as a symbol of enduring union or cherished as a personal emblem of grace and resilience, this folding screen adds not only beauty, but meaning. It transforms an ordinary corner into a sanctuary of calm—a space that reflects your values as much as your taste.

Let this screen be your still point—a scene of serenity in an ever-moving world.
