About the Item

The Empire style emerged in France during the early XIX century under the leadership of Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte. It is characterized by its prominent straight lines and geometric shapes, often featuring bronze or gold decorations, as well as classical motifs such as wreaths, garlands, sphinxes and eagles. In Portugal, the Empire style had an important influence on interior decoration in the XIX and early XX centuries, and many furniture were produced following this aesthetic. An Empire-style stool is an elegant and refined piece, with straight legs and carved details with a seat upholstered in fabric.

Painted Buffet 17th Century Provenance Prof Dr José Hermano Saraiva
