Venice 19th Century Throne Chair attributed Testolini Frères Leather Upholster

About the Item

Venice 19th Century Throne Chair attributed to Testolini Frères Venice ,Leather Upholstery, wax polished About Testolini Frères Venise Testolini Brothers saw its birth as a carpentry-cabinetmaking company; its owners were not ordinary personalities and immediately began to introduce new fashions in furnishings. The period chosen was not among the most propitious - shortly thereafter there would be the uprisings of 1848 and the famous revolt of Manin and the Republic of San Marco -, but the Testolini were not discouraged and serenely continued their production, seizing immediately the fresh artistic eclecticism that invaded the world from the mid-19th century, starting to conceive and produce original and imaginative models. Umbertine Style Furniture by Testolini Frères Venice Umbertine furniture is typically made with solid cherry, olive, oak and walnut wood. The Umbertine style furniture that was revived in this era was mainly: chests of drawers with marble tops having shaped mirrors, tables with carved bands and turned legs with onion-shaped feet, padded chairs with sculpted backs, bronze chandeliers with arms and ramifications and finally chests of drawers and consoles with fine finishes and inlays. The Umbertine period lasted just under twenty years as in 1895 a new style called Liberty, universally known as Art Nouveau, took over.
