About the Item

We are delighted to offer for sale this very rare finely carved Venetian Baroque style figural walnut throne settee or bench, attributed to Valentino Panciera Besarel (Venice, 1829-1902) in the manner of Andrea Brustolon (1662-1732). This piece is in simply amazing condition throughout, it’s a very early model This impressive carved walnut throne settee has a raked padded back above a stuffed over seat. The arms are carved to the elbow with recumbent putti figures looking skyward, carved almost in the round and supported by foliate sprays. The exuberantly carved neoclassical figures supporting the carved foliage arms are simply works of art, the side stretchers carved with scrolls meeting at the centre in a cartouche. The vigorous Baroque style of carving echoes the style of Andrea Brustolon (1662–1732), an important sculptor and wood carver who made furniture for many of the great Venetian Palaces. In terms of condition, the timber has been lightly cleaned hand condition waxed and hand polished, the leather upholstery is fine Italian heritage hide, we have had in leather polished to the deep cigar brown colour Dimensions Height 106.5cm Width 143cm Depth 83cm Please note all measurements are taken at the widest point.
