18th Century, Italian Rococo Carved Walnut Wood Corbeille Sofa

About the Item

18th Century, Italian Rococo Carved Walnut Wood Corbeille Sofa This refined corbeille sofa, made in Genoa, Italy, around the mid-18th century during the Rococo period, features a semi-oval structure whose backrest curves smoothly into the armrests in one continuous, enveloping line. The walnut wood frame, left with a natural finish, is carved with floral and plant motifs at the center of the backrest and the apron below the seat. The molded frame, with its flowing lines, outlines the backrest and armrests adorned with rocaille carvings, as well as the seat apron and the legs. The nine legs are curved and elegantly shaped. This three-seater sofa is upholstered in velvet fabric, which is in good condition. Overall, the sofa is very graceful and decorative. Its enveloping shape and delicate legs make it appear visually light, minimizing its spatial impact. It is particularly well-suited to be combined with both antique and contemporary furniture. It can also be used as a centerpiece sofa.

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.
