About the Item

This beautiful Empire period shield headboard, dating to around 1810, is a masterpiece of craftsmanship made entirely of cherry wood. The gilded and carved wood finishes give a touch of elegance and refinement to its design. The headboard has been carefully decorated, featuring two pine cones on the sides with golden finishes, details that give a regal and ornamental appearance to the entire composition. The pine cones, symbols of fertility and prosperity, were chosen as decorative elements to further enrich its beauty. The headboard in the center has an upholstery upholstery with plant motifs. The provenance of this header makes it even more interesting and exclusive, as the city of Lucca, Italy, is famous for its artisan tradition of the highest level. The mastery and skill of Lucca's artisans are reflected in the attention to detail and precision of the finishes. The headboard is specifically designed to fit a single bed, adding a touch of luxury and style to the bedroom. Its classic and sumptuous design fits perfectly with the taste of the imperial era, emphasizing the importance of royalty and prestige. Measurements: HxWxD 171 x 119 x 7cm.
