Measurements: cm H 108 x W 73 x D 77, seat H 46 x D 51 x W 61
The splendid large armchair, in finely carved and gilded wood, was made in Genoa, in the Louis XV period, mid-18th century. The pentagonal back has a wavy and curvilinear profile, and is decorated with carvings with phytomorphic and rocaille elements. The armrests, slightly moved and decorated with carved leaves, end with a volute and from this fit the seat.

The back and seat are padded and lined in red velvet with fine ochre and grey decorations.

18th Century, Pair of Italian Rococò Carved Giltwood Benches
Located in IT
18th Century, pair of Italian Rococo carved giltwood benches.
This elegant pair of two-seater benches was built in the second half of the 18th century in Rome, Italy. The structure, in richly carved and gilded wood, has the characteristics of the Baroque period.
The band under the seat has a mixed profile and is carved with rocaille motifs and rich floral decoration in relief in the central part. The four legs, curved and moved, have on the uprights the same carvings and in the terminal part of the foot emerges a scroll. The rear uprights, carved with curled end, are higher than the seat, in order to slender the image of the benches vertically.
The seat is lined with velvet from a later period.
These benches can be exhibited in pairs or individually in entrances or corridors, in living rooms and studios or in a room at the foot of the bed. They can also be placed below large paintings. Very decorative, bright and graceful, they are suitable both in contexts characterized by antique and modern furniture.

18th Century Dutch Rosewood and Fruitwood Marquetry Sofa
Located in CABA, AR
In the opulent realm of 18th-century Dutch furniture, the rosewood sofa with intricate marquetry in fruitwood stands as an epitome of elegance and craftsmanship. Crafted during the height of the Dutch Golden Age, this sofa embodies the luxurious tastes of the era while also reflecting the mastery of Dutch artisans in woodworking and decorative arts.
Rosewood, prized for its rich reddish-brown hue and fine grain, was a favored choice among affluent patrons of the 18th century. Its lustrous surface served as a canvas for the art of marquetry, a technique where delicate pieces of contrasting fruitwood are skillfully inlaid to create intricate designs. The marquetry adorning this sofa might depict scenes from nature, floral motifs, or even mythological narratives, showcasing the virtuosity of the craftsmen who brought these visions to life.
During the 18th century, Dutch furniture experienced a period of remarkable innovation and refinement. Influenced by a blend of styles from across Europe, Dutch furniture of this time often featured a harmonious fusion of Baroque grandeur, Rococo whimsy, and Neoclassical symmetry. This eclectic mix resulted in pieces that were not only visually stunning but also functionally versatile, catering to the diverse needs and tastes of their owners.
Investing in an 18th-century Dutch rosewood sofa with marquetry in fruitwood offers more than just a piece of furniture; it provides a tangible connection to a bygone era of prosperity and cultural flourishing. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, such a sofa represents a testament to the craftsmanship and ingenuity of Dutch artisans, whose skills continue to captivate admirers centuries later.
Moreover, acquiring an antique Dutch sofa...
