About the Item
Please read the full description carefully, as we are dedicated to providing detailed technical and historical information to ensure the authenticity of our items. This is an elegant and refined pair of Italian benches, crafted from solid wood painted black with a high-gloss finish that highlights the intricate decorative carvings on the sides and crossbars. These richly adorned and distinctive details evoke classical floral motifs and volutes, typical of Baroque and Neo-Renaissance styles, suggesting a historical origin between the late 19th and early 20th centuries, specifically from 1890 to 1910, a time when Italy experienced a revival of past artistic styles. The seats are upholstered in high-quality, light-colored linen fabric, accented by a thick central strip of black velvet. This recent restoration was expertly carried out by a seasoned craftsman from Prato, who skillfully and precisely applied the new upholstery. This detail adds a touch of contemporary elegance, making the benches versatile enough to complement both classic and modern interiors.
The creation of this pair can be traced to Tuscany, particularly to a cabinet-making workshop in the Pistoia area. Pistoia was renowned for producing elegant, finely crafted furniture. The artisans of Pistoia were skilled in creating furniture with intricate inlays and harmonious lines, showcasing high-quality craftsmanship and often catering to noble families and prestigious residences.
The rich and sophisticated design of these benches is a testament to Italian artisanal excellence, celebrated for its attention to detail and use of premium materials. Pistoia, along with other Tuscan locales, contributed to establishing Tuscany's reputation as one of the foremost centers for artistic furniture production. The region's style blended Renaissance, Baroque, and Neoclassical influences, resulting in unique and beautiful pieces. Our pair of benches is a fine example of this tradition. These benches are not merely decorative elements but genuine collector’s items that embody the authenticity and charm of the Italian furniture-making heritage. Ideal for furnishing an entryway, living room, or bedroom, they add an air of sophistication and refinement to any space. The benches have been fully restored and are in excellent condition. Measurements for each bench: width 48 cm, depth 43 cm, height 55 cm, seat height 49 cm. For all our shipments, we use special packaging materials (wooden crates, styrofoam, etc.) to ensure the utmost protection and safety of the items.
