About the Item
This pair of Louis XVI style benches showcases exceptional craftsmanship and elegant design. Lacquered in a sophisticated palette of delicate cream and ivory tones, accented with striking blue lacquered bands and intricate gilded inlays of leaves, flowers, and rosettes. The fluted, tapered legs adorned with acanthus leaves inlays and subtly curved arms, terminating in graceful scrolls, add to their refined aesthetic. Intricate pierced detailing adorns the armrests.
Their centrally placed decorative bands with floral swags carvings create a sense of refined sophistication.
Their elegant design and versatile size make these benches equally at home in a variety of settings. Consider them flanking a console table in a grand entryway, adding a touch of refined elegance to a living room, or creating a charming window seat. Their versatility extends to less formal spaces, functioning beautifully as additional seating in a dining room or as stylish accents in a hallway. The possibilities are as varied and elegant as the benches themselves.
These beautifully preserved benches are in very good overall condition, retaining their original patina and offering stable seating. Minor wear consistent with age and use only serves to enhance the rich character of the piece. The patina speaks to their history and adds a depth and authenticity that is hard to replicate.
Upholstered in a vintage light blue fabric with a herringbone pattern (in good condition). Re-upholstery options available.
Dimensions: W. 88cm, H. 60cm, D. 40cm, Seat Height 45cm.
From a private Tuscan villa.

17th Century Italian Louis XIV Lacquered and Gilded Sofa
Located in Firenze, IT
This extraordinary Italian Louis XIV sofa embodies the zenith of late 17th-century Neapolitan craftsmanship. This antique seating piece masterfully blends elegance and comfort, showcasing the refined taste of its era through its sinuous form and intricate detailing.
The wooden frame of this luxurious couch is a testament to the artisan's skill, featuring a lustrous ivory-colored lacquer base beautifully accented with gold leaf detailing. The sophisticated "mecca" technique has been employed, involving the application of gold leaf over a red bole ground to create a warm, rich golden hue. This meticulous process results in a depth and luminosity that surpasses simple gilding, adding a luxurious dimension to the piece.
The graceful silhouette of this antique settee is quintessentially Louis XIV, with a shapely backrest delineating three distinct, rounded seat areas. Elegant cabriole legs enhance the overall sense of movement and refinement. The curved armrests are particularly noteworthy, not only providing exceptional comfort but also serving as a canvas for the artisan's prowess. Each armrest is adorned with an intricately carved scroll motif, centered by a deeply carved rosette finished in radiant gold leaf.
Every surface of this Baroque seating furniture is embellished with exquisite hand-carved details. Floral and foliate motifs adorn the frame, showcasing the woodcarver's mastery. A double band of gold leaf frames the entire perimeter of the settee, adding a final touch of luxury and definition to the piece.
The upholstery complements the frame's opulence, featuring an antique green velvet with a sumptuous damask pattern. Green passementerie trims the edges, which, despite minor wear consistent with its age, remains in good overall condition.
This Louis XIV canape is versatile enough to enhance various settings. In a grand entryway or corridor, it would create a stunning first impression. Placed at the end of a bed in a master suite, it would add a touch of regal elegance. In a formal living room or study, it could serve as a centerpiece, anchoring the room's design. Even in a professional setting, such as a high-end law office or executive suite, it would lend an air of established prestige.
The value of this antique Italian seating stems from its exceptional provenance, superior craftsmanship, and the use of sophisticated techniques like "mecca" gilding. Its excellent state of preservation and the quality of the antique upholstery fabric...
