Room Dividers with Art and Photos

Room divider folding screens come in all sizes and styles. The shoji screen made with a wood frame and usually rice paper is the most common room divider on the market. The design is simple squared window pane pattern. I'm sure you have all seen posters with stock photos and famous world paintings and photography. Now there is a room divider that actually has the enlarged printed image on 3,4 and even 6 panels! These "art print room dividers" are basically a functional poster but much more sophisticated and bold. So the question is, what is the quality like of these screens? These unique folding screens are constructed with a very light weight spruce wood frame. The image is printed on stretched canvas also called a poly-canvas. The ink used is high saturated so the pixels are closer together producing a clear image. So what exactly is "stretched canvas"? Without getting too technical, it is more advantageous to understand what I can compare it to.

First of all, these art print room dividers are very light weight. A 3 panel screen weighs about 12 pounds. The material used to print the image on is wrapped around the wood skeleton frame of the panels. The material feels similar to wall paper or smooth vinyl texture. There is a different image on each side which makes sense if you get bored of one image, just flip it around.

Let's say for instance you go to a printing shop and you ask them to enlarge a custom photo of yours to the same size of a three panel room divider. The average cost of a custom image blown up to 6ft high by 45" wide ( same dimensions as a 3 panel screen) would cost you between $150-$180, and that's just to print in on an adhesive stick on paper, not a folding screen. Also keep in mind that the price to print something that large will only be one side, not double sided, like the "art print" divider you find online.

A three panel double sided room divider in art print sells between $123-$159 including shipping. You will not find a printed image to that large of scale at a price like that. The reason why these room dividers are so affordable is because they are mass produced by the thousands in the Far East. Special discount on website: http://UrbanAccentsNY.com
