Japanese
Art Deco Pocket Doors, Pair
Circa 1920’s,
owned by the Ambassador to Japan.
From a Castle in Bavaria, Germany
Spectacular ebonized and
hand painted interior pocket doors, pair.
Top quality construction. The reverse side is a dense wood in a
pattern.
This could be stained or painted to match your decor.
The doors are solid and very heavy, making them very soundproof
and an excellent choice for a theater room.
Please note: We could not assemble the matching door frame in our
warehouse,
so you will see the frame shown in pieces below...
History: These
doors came out of a castle in Bavaria, Germany.
The castle was called "Burg Hauenstein".
The castle was owned by the Ambassador to Japan (at the time)
who left Japan to return to Germany in 1912.
These doors were
built about this time, very early Art Deco Era.
The castle was since sold by his descendants and the new owners
removed everything oriental and redecorated.
We also have the
matching (smaller) swing doors and a large urn from this estate.
