1750 Venezia Italy Green Lacquered Wooden Box Jewelry Case and Floral Decoration
1750 Venezia Italy Green Lacquered Wooden Box Jewelry Case and Floral Decoration

1750 Venezia Italy Green Lacquered Wooden Box Jewelry Case and Floral Decoration

Located in Brescia, IT

This little, refined and exquisite lacquered wooden box or jewelry case, with polychrome floral decoration on green background is a piece that shows its elegance. It could be a little jewel to contain jewels and its beauty perfectly matches with every timeless home. The curved shape of the box, on the front, on the sides and of the feet, the rich carving, are the result of the high level craftemanships of the Venetian master cabinetery. This magnificent piece hails from the Mid-18th Century in Venezia and masterfully shows the lacquered Venetian style. One of the distinctive characteristics of Venetian Baroque and Rococo furniture and decorative objects is the skilful use of lacquers. Lacquer is a natural resin that was very rare in the past, imported from the East and used to create smooth and colored surfaces on furniture, ready to be finely decorated with refined floral designs or exotic animals. Venetian artisans became masters in lacquer processing which required time and patience because it was made with many steps. The Venetian style deeply influenced furniture design throughout Europe, but none reached the Venetian level in terms of beauty. The skillful use of lacquer and carvings defined Venice's unique style during the Rococo period, its Golden Age. The piece is in very good state of maintenance and it is guaranteed original in every parts. The surface was only cleaned not restored and it is original. The wooden green lacquered box...
