Patinated Sculpta-Grille Bones Screen on Walnut Base by Richard Harvey, 1960s

Creator: Richard Harvey
Offered by: Habitat-Gallery

Description
This isn’t just a room divider. This is a tanned, well-traveled, effortlessly bronzed bombshell who’s been sunning her curves on the French Riviera since 1968. A screen with a backstory so glamorous it probably had lunch with Alain Delon and turned down a film role out of sheer disinterest.

Designed by architect Richard Harvey for his now-iconic Sculpta-Grille series, this honeycombed beauty was originally intended for commercial interiors—banks, lounges, casinos—but let’s be honest: she was always destined for stardom.

And baby, this one caught the light.

Placed in a gloriously sunny space for decades, she’s developed a luminous golden patina across her sculptural resin peaks—like caramelized crème brûlée meets post-vacation glow. The color is somewhere between “sun-drenched champagne” and “gingerbread goddess.” It’s slightly uneven in the most delicious way, like tan lines you earned yacht-hopping off the coast of Monaco. She didn’t fade—she basked.

The walnut base is still rich and swanky, the visual equivalent of a velvet smoking jacket and a low murmur of jazz. The whole thing screams architectural flirtation and modular mayhem.

Use her as a room divider. A sculpture. A conversation piece. A deeply fabulous excuse to rearrange your entire living room. She's not here to blend in—she’s here to anchor your aesthetic and drink your last glass of Sancerre.

Paired in our gallery alongside a Marta Blomstedt-style chair (also fabulous), a Paul Evans credenza, a Milo Baughman sofa, and a Hans Wegner Papa Bear chair—and she STILL steals the scene. Honestly, she might have dated all three.

And if you're into sibling rivalry, we’ve got another screen too—same bloodline, but she stayed in the shade. She's paler, creamier, a little more demure. Think Grace Kelly to this one's Sophia Loren.

We ship worldwide—yes, even to your villa in Capri or that weird lighthouse you’re turning into a brutalist art gallery. And our rates? Bananas. Message us for a quote before she sails off again.

We've attached some of our very own photos of other bones screens we've had in the past (last 3 images) to give you an idea of functionality.
