About the Item
Set of Four Italian Art Deco Walnut and Velvet Poufs, Naples, 1930s – Original Museum Quality
This exceptional set of four Italian Art Deco poufs, dating from the 1930s, represents the luxurious craftsmanship and sculptural imagination of Italy’s interwar decorative arts. Sourced from a private villa in Naples, these pieces remain completely original and preserved in outstanding, museum-quality condition — an exceedingly rare survival.
Each pouf rests on a circular walnut base supporting a softly rounded upholstered body, accentuated by vertical walnut inlays that divide the richly patterned velvet surface. The upholstery is entirely original: a sumptuous jacquard velvet in deep burgundy, gold, and olive tones, woven with bold geometric-floral motifs characteristic of the Italian Art Deco style. The texture and color palette perfectly capture the glamour and refinement of the 1930s.
The solid walnut bases display beautifully aged patina with subtle variations in tone, while the flared form of the poufs provides both sculptural presence and comfortable seating. Every detail — from the balance of proportions to the interplay between the warm wood grain and luxurious velvet — reflects the artisanal mastery of Italian cabinetmakers of the period.
These poufs can be used as accent seats, dressing stools, or decorative elements in a refined interior. Their authentic materials and impeccable preservation make them suitable for a curated design collection or museum display.
