Classical Greek Sculptures
CLASSICAL GREEK STYLE
There is rare surviving furniture from ancient Greece, yet this classical style has informed design for centuries. Interiors of houses in antiquity were minimal, with much of a room’s color coming from frescoes on the walls and mosaics on the floors. Classical Greek furniture was sparing but finely crafted and influenced by Egyptian furniture design through Mediterranean trade.
Furnishings of the period were usually made from local wood like cypress, cedar, oak and willow from ancient Greece’s plentiful forests, although some pieces were carved from marble, such as a 300–200 B.C. throne with lion legs and a curved back now at the Getty Villa. Comfort and clean lines characterized designs during the Classical era, the symmetry and thoughtful proportions reflecting the architecture of Greek temples.
Some pieces of ancient Greek furniture were simple, rectangular platforms like the klinē, a multipurpose ancestor of today’s couches or daybeds that held cushions stuffed with wool, dry grass or down. These structures were used for both sleeping and dining, which wealthy Greeks did while reclining. At night, oil lamps illuminated rooms that frequently surrounded a garden courtyard.
Most of what scholars have learned about Greek furniture design owes to its representations in art like vases and stelae. The portable diphros stool, with its backless design and four turned legs, was one of the more common types of seating in daily Greek life — it appears as such for the gods on the Parthenon frieze. Stools without backs have been found in early Roman tombs, while benches were also common Greek seating furniture created for use in theaters. In houses of the Hellenistic period, benches seemingly functioned as tables, too.
Some designs evolved through adaptations by the Romans, including the klismos chair. After prominent archaeological excavations at Pompeii and Herculaneum, the klismos chair — with its four saber legs and the elegant curves that define its back — was a source of inspiration for aesthetics in eras ranging from 18th-century neoclassicism to 20th-century Art Deco.

ORIGINAL SiGNED AMEDEO GENNARELLI 1881-1943 CARVED MARBLE STATUE / SCULPTURe
Located in GB
Royal House Antiques
Royal House Antiques is delighted to offer for sale this stunning hand carved Carrara marble, signed Amedeo Gennarelli (1881-1943) Italian Art-déco sculpture of a nude lady circa 1920
Please note the delivery fee listed is just a guide, it covers within the M25 only for the UK and local Europe only for international, if you would like an accurate quote, please send me your postcode and I’ll provide you with the exact price.
Amedeo Gennarelli (1881-1943) was a famous Italian Art-déco-sculptor. He is known for his nude female figures. Gennarelli was born in 1881 in Naples, Italy. In 1909 he immigrated to France, where he met with the great sculptors and artists of the period. In 1913 he exhibited its beautiful Marble Female Nude at the "Salon des Artistes Francais", where he exhibited regularly until 1936.
Paris was the ideal starting point to pay attention to the avant-garde. A lot of painters, sculptors and graphic artists visited the city at the river Seine to take part in the development of the new arts. Amedeo increasingly dedicated himself to the Art déco and already exhibited his first works in the Salon of the Société des Artistes Français in 1913.
The Société was a professional association of French painters and sculptors and was founded in 1881 in Paris, presenting still today the works of its artist in an annual Salon. When the first president of the association, the painter William-Adolphe Bouguereau, suggested in 1890 to dedicate the Salon young and unknown artists, a disagreement with the established artists, such as Auguste Rodin and Pierre Puvis de Chavannes started. The older ones founded their own Salon, exhibiting their own works.
The aesthetic sculptures of Amedeo are designed in the style of Art deco. The distinguished marks of this epoch that arose at the beginning of the 20th century are varied and multi-form, because they were influenced by many different artistic trends. But especially geometric forms, pithy and extensive ornaments and floral motifs were used.
He made these themes into erotic and athletic sculptures, as we can see for example at the sculptures The Carrier Pigeon and Towards Destiny...

Hera, a clear, grey & black figurative glass sculpture by Cathryn Shilling
Located in London, GB
'Hera' is a unique glass sculpture by the British artist Cathryn Shilling. The interior figure is free-blown glass which is wrapped in kiln-formed glass cane 'fabric' which is applied hot. With her Cloaked Collection, Shilling takes mythical tragic figures as her inspiration. Blown forms are wrapped in glass cane 'cloaks' which mimic cloth, following the contours of the form below.
In the artist's own words;
"Cloaked are large figurative pieces that are the culmination of the development of ideas and processes made over a long period of time. The process of slow, considered exploration of the material cold and rigid in the studio. The technical exploration of hot glass processes requiring quick judgements in order to create a form, drawn from observation. And the process of resolution, so by bringing these elements together, produces something that is greater than the sum of the parts. These pieces stand tall like a character in a play, conveying the essence of inevitable tragedy to be found in life, love, war and death".
Cathryn Shilling began her arts career as a graphic designer but went on to study glass after moving to Connecticut with her family. On returning to the UK she studied kiln formed glass at Kensington and Chelsea College and blown glass with Peter Layton at the London Glassblowing Workshop. She set up studio in London in 2007 from where she has gone on to create a huge body and variety of work.
Shilling experiments with colour and technique to produce beautiful one off sculptures. Her innovative pieces push the glass beyond our usual comfort zones. With some sculptures, glass rods are woven together like fabric, mimicking the flexibility and movement of cloth. The apparent frailty of the glass is balanced by the strong dynamic forms, differing levels of light picking out layers of colour. With other works, bubbles are trapped in swathes of watery hues. Her colour palette and choice of forms are very much informed by the various natural states in which water is found: icebergs, waterfalls and whirlpools for example.
Shilling’s work has been collected and widely exhibited internationally including: Ireland Glass Biennale 2019 at Dublin Castle...
