About the Item

An Extremely rare four fold wood inlay screen 'THE JUNGLE' Designed by W A Chase For THE ROWLEY GALLERY Exhibited in 1924 Measures: height 190 cm full width 140cm (each panel 35cm wide) This screen is a wonderful example of the craftsmanship associated with The Rowley Gallery and the collaboration of the top artists and designers who worked for them. Established in 1899 as a picture framers in Kensington Church Street by Albert James Rowley and his wife Emma, the Rowley Gallery gained an international reputation for their inlay wood panels, mirrors and screens. They moved into furniture design in the 1920s and grew into a successful business specialising in interior schemes. The shop was destroyed by an incendiary bomb in 1941. William Arthur Chase was the most prolific artist and Sir Frank Brangwyn the most prestigious.
