Furniture / Household Appliances
Aunque "biombo" tiene origen chino, en Colombia, ese es uno de los nombres que se le da a esas paredes delgadas portatiles y desplegables hechas generalmente de tela gruesa y enmarcadas de madera que se usan para dividir un cuarto, tal como un dormitorio para separar las areas de dos personas y mantener la privacidad de cada una. Tambien se usan en cuarticos vestidores en almacenes de ropa y en consultorios medicos.

Si el contexto es explicar el término biombo, quizás lo debes dejar así y poner la traducción entre paréntesis o algo.
