Vintage Italian Trompe L'oeil Leather Book Library Folding Screen by Sarreid

Description
Vintage Trompe-l'œil decorative three-panel folding screen/room divider depicting a faux library with antique leather bound book spines by Sarreid (ca. 1960s, Italy).
Each panel is made from stained beechwood with tooled leather books in various colors, designs, and sizes against black masonite backings, all supported by four highly stylized brass finials/feet. The two-way hinges connecting each panel allow each to be positioned inward or outward.
There are three vacant spaces across all three panels -- since no exact example has been identified, it's unclear if three books are missing or if those spaces were designed to be empty.
Regardless, the potentially missing spines do not detract from the beauty or integrity of the piece. The set looks complete.
Very good, conservatively refinished condition - natural patina/soiling to the leather spines, tarnish to one of the unpolished brass feet, and light scuffs/dings to the refinished beechwood along with one veneer fill under a hinge, as shown.
Retains the Sarreid label to the reverse.
Each panel is H: 71.5" x L: 16" x D: 1"
Completely folded - H: 71.5" x L: 16.38" x D: 3"
Flat - H: 71.5" x L: 49.25" x D:1"
"Boxed" (as in image 2 with each end panel parallel to each other and perpendicular to the central panel): H: 71.5" x L: 18.25" x D: 17" -
