Vintage Japanese Hina Doll Gold Folding Screen Byobu
This is a vintage folding panel (Byobu). This folding screen is a miniature one, usually used as a background for displaying Hina dolls during the Girl's Day Festival.

It has a fabric border with a hishi rhombus pattern, and the back is simple gray paper with paper fans printed in silver. The edges are made of resin plastic and have metal embellishments on the corners.
