Pair of Venetian armchairs in lacquered and gilded wood, 18th century
About the Item
This refined and important pair of lacquered armchairs was made around the mid-18th century in Venice, Italy. They are made of carved, lacquered and gilded wood and reflect the typical stylistic dictates of the Venetian Louis XV.
The armchairs stand out for the elegance of their wavy shapes:
the seat is supported by a wavy band, with golden, lacquered profiles and, at the top, carved with rocaille elements.
The open backrest features the woven workmanship, typical of Venice.
The seat is padded and the belt is curved, with another very pleasant rocaille placed in the center.
The seat is supported by four "en cabriole" supports with curled feet.
The armchairs, which can be placed together or individually, are very decorative both in an entrance hall and in a lounge and bedroom.
Authenticity
The armchairs are in perfect condition. Each component is contemporary and original. The lacquering has only been cleaned and is original from the time. They have already been exhibited at exhibitions with expert vetting. The Rubelli fabric and padding are recent. The fabric has some tears.
Furthermore, these armchairs have already been exhibited at the international antiques exhibition of Modenantiquaria where each object can be exhibited after passing a careful examination of integrity and quality suited to the exhibition. This examination is conducted by a team of experts called the Commission.
