Janetti Pedestals
Janetti was able to establish a direct supply channel from Japan due to the help of Vittorio Aymonin (1826–88), a silkworm egg dealer who resided in Japan from 1867–88. The discovery explains both the positive comment expressed by the Japanese diplomats and the decision made by Frederick Stibbert of choosing Janetti as his favourite dealer of Japanese artworks from the late 1860s to the end of the 1880s.

Janetti Father & Sons Japanese Pedestal in Engraved and Painted Bamboo, ca 1880
By Janetti
Located in Roma, IT
Marvelous Japanese pedestal, this delightful object was made in Japan in the late 19th-century and imported into Italy by a famous merchant, Emportio Janetti Padre e Figli. They were the first in trading Japanese art in Florence in the second half of the 19th century.
This spectacular piece of rare beauty was fully hand-crafted with perfect proportions. The complex structure is made in engraved and lacquered crossed bamboo with fantastic floreal details. The two round trays are in black lacquered wood with hand-painted decorations. The fine details and the beauty make this pedestal a masterpiece.
An unique decorative pedestal of outstanding quality that can be mixed in a neoclassical or mid-century project or in a Japanese style project.
