19th Century Italian Baroque Polychrome Cassapanca Wood Storage Hall Bench

About the Item

A beautiful 19th century Italian polychrome casapanca wood storage hall bench having a carved back with the hinged lid opening to reveal a storage well, raised on shaped bracket feet. Decorated overall with typical Italian Baroque floral and foliate motifs. This type of carved bench was used for both seating and for storage. Its Italian name, cassapanca, translates as "chest-bench." Sought after to adorn Florentine palaces, casapancas would usually be found in the main public rooms of a palazzo. Considered rare because Palazzo owners traditionally wouldn't sell these pieces. They would be left in a palace and passed down from generation to generation.

19th C. Italian Pair of Wooden Baroque-Style Benches 'with Storage Beneath Seat'
Located in Atlanta, GA
An Italian pair of Baroque-style carved-wood benches with storage from the 19th century. This antique pair of wood benches from Italy are each designed with Baroque influences with the rectangular-seat top overhanging a case below with shell carved prominently at front center, and a curvy outline of scrolls framing the sides and skirt at front. The benches are presented upon four large paw-carved feet that project outwardly at sides. The seat top lifts up to reveal ample storage inside (perfect for blankets, coats, boots, or games). The wood has a lovely aged patina and has been complimented with a custom creamy/taupe trim color. The backsides of these benches remain unfinished, making best use for them against a wall. These 19th century Italian Baroque style benches...
