Coromandel screen start with a cedar plywood
frame covered in a cheesecloth material. Then layer after layer of
plaster is applied; each layer must dry before another layer can be
applied. After all the plaster has been applied several coats of
lacquer is put over the entire surface. The design is drawn onto
life-sized paper and carefully traced on to the panels. The
craftsman then hand carves the design into the screen, through the
lacquer into the plaster. Once the screen is done it is painted
with water based paint or silver/gold leaf is applied and sealed
with a clear lacquer coat.
