About the Item
This is a rare fireplace bellows in carved and lacquered wood with polychrome decorations of flowers on a light green background. It has original leather details and the bronze spout. This elegant piece hails from the Mid-18th Century, Venezia.
The curved shape, on the front and on the sides, moreover the exquisite floral decoration and the bright lacquer colors, are the result of the high level craftemanships of the Venetian master cabinetery.
The piece is coming out from the Gatti-Casazza Collection inventory label n. 188/9 (Venezia, Italy) a well known Italian collector living in the Early 20th Century, that gifted his collection of Venetian lacquered pieces to the Ca' Rezzonico Museum in Venice and where there is still.
It is an elegant and surprising piece that can perfectly matches with the beauty of every timeless home.
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.
