This four-panel folding screen, painted in ink and color on silk during Korea's Joseon dynasty (1700s–1800s), depicts a gathering of Buddhist deities rendered with the formal, richly colored style typical of Korean Buddhist temple painting. Folding screens like this one served both devotional and decorative purposes within temples and private homes, reflecting the enduring presence of Buddhist imagery in Korean visual culture even as the Joseon court officially favored Confucianism.
Jacquard-woven in soft, durable cotton — a warm, fully reversible throw for the sofa, bed or reading chair.

I bought this to fill an awkward corner and it did much more than that. I have been hunting for a good version of Buddhist Deities for two years. My neighbor liked it enough that she ordered one for her own place. It has made me a repeat customer already.
My only complaint is that I wish they made a bigger version. The balance of light and dark in Buddhist Deities came out better than I expected. The seller answered a sizing question the same afternoon. Everything in this house is secured for earthquakes and this has stayed put through two small ones. Worth the money overall. 😍
It looks better in some light than in others. The detail in Buddhist Deities holds up at a distance and softens if you come closer.
Sorry the price felt high for what arrived. Email us and we can look at a partial refund, and I would like to hear what would have made this a five.
I have mixed feelings about this one. The colors in Buddhist Deities are close to right and a little cool for my taste. It is the kind of thing that works and does not stand out. It is thinner than I pictured and still holds its shape fine. I don't regret it and I don't celebrate it.
The reproduction quality is the best I have seen anywhere near this price. The smallest marks in Buddhist Deities are still visible, which is the entire point.
