About the Item
Pair of Large Oriental Lacquered Wooden Vases, Late 19th Century
Dimensions: cm H 142 x W 69 x D 69. Base cm 51 x 51
This monumental pair of vases was made in Europe towards the end of the 19th century in an Oriental style. Made entirely of black lacquered wood, the vases are finely decorated with paintings in polychrome lacquer and gilding, reminiscent of the cloisonné technique. The vases are made in two separable parts: square bases with curved profiles and arched, curved legs, supporting the vases. These consist of three inseparable portions. The lower portion is truncated pyramid-shaped, with smooth sides that widen towards the bottom, the middle portion is inverted, and the upper portion, with a square section, follows a trumpet shape that narrows in the center and flares outwards at the top. Each side of each section, including the bases, is decorated with Oriental-inspired motifs: geometric and phytomorphic designs, landscapes, figures, and birds, all influenced by the distinctive production of Japan and China, which became very popular in Europe starting from the 18th century.
The two vases are highly decorative due to their color scheme and considerable size. They can be placed in various settings, from entrances to salons, studies, and bedrooms, where they will bring the timeless charm of the Orient. They can also be used as planters, with the addition of a metal insert.
There are a few small areas of lacquer loss, for which we can arrange a restoration.

18th Century, Pair of Italian Rococo Chinoiserie Lacquered Wood Corner Cabinets
This pair of corner cabinets was made in Piedmont, Italy, around the middle of the eighteenth century according to the taste of the baroque.
The structure is in poplar wood, lacquered and decorated on the front side. The central body consists of an open door that conceals a compartment with two shelves. Above, a mixed cymatium crowns the piece of furniture and consists of two small tops bordered with gold leaf on red bole. Equally finished in gold are reserves and frames that decorate the furniture highlighting the various parts of which it is composed. Below the door, a open compartment is presented by a quadrilobate profile. The piece of furniture is decorated with floral ornaments and polychrome chinoiserie designs partly in relief thanks to the application of cast plaster. Inside the side frames are depicted characters dressed in oriental with floral decorations typical of fashion in chinoiserie. The two central doors have different designs, animated by oriental figures dressed in Chinese clothes...
