Classical Roman Furniture

CLASSICAL ROMAN STYLE

During Mount Vesuvius’ eruption in 79 A.D., Pompeii and Herculaneum in today’s Italy were preserved as they were on the day of their destruction. Particularly at Herculaneum, furnishings were carbonized beneath volcanic ash. This was pivotal to understanding how Classical Roman furniture was designed. Archaeological investigations and printed reproductions of discoveries would influence styles evoking this ancient civilization, from the Renaissance to neoclassicism.

While knowledge of Classical Roman furniture comes from rare surviving pieces, it is also derived from frescoes and sculptures portraying Roman life. Much of Roman art, architecture and design was informed by Greece — Roman architect, military engineer and writer Marcus Vitruvius Pollio, whose timeless De architectura is taught in contemporary architecture classes and pays tribute to classical architecture, visited Greece while working under Julius Caesar and admired the country’s architectural developments. The Roman solium references the Greek thronos, a stately chair of honor with an upright form and footstool. As the Roman Empire spread across Europe and into North Africa and Western Asia, the expansion of trade for silver, silk, marble and wood allowed for more luxurious designs.

Classical Roman furniture was made from bronze, wood and stone — in particular, marble — with ornate touches like tortoiseshell veneers, bone and glass inlays and claw feet. Ornaments depicting lion heads and mythological figures were sculpted from silver, bronze and ivory. Compared to the decorative attention given to the mosaic floors and wall paintings, however, furniture for even a wealthy house was minimal. It focused on the necessities for guests arriving for both socializing and business and the rooms housing family, relatives and enslaved people.

The triclinium dining room had banquet couches, items so prized they were sometimes interred with the deceased. Tall bronze or terracotta candelabras held oil lamps for lighting. Carved marble tables reflected status, while the lararium home shrine demonstrated faith.

Vintage Boho Cast Marble Bust of Marcus Aurelius
Vintage Boho Cast Marble Bust of Marcus Aurelius

Vintage Boho Cast Marble Bust of Marcus Aurelius

Located in West Palm Beach, FL

This striking vintage bust of a youthful Marcus Aurelius is a masterful example of Neoclassical revival design. Crafted from high-quality cast marble, the sculpture captures the serene expression and iconic, deeply textured curls synonymous with Greco-Roman antiquity. The smooth, polished finish of the bust provides a sophisticated contrast to the heavily distressed black wooden plinth upon which it rests. This intentional juxtaposition of classical form and rustic weathering makes it an ideal statement piece for those who appreciate a curated, academic aesthetic with a hint of bohemian flair. Measuring 8.5" wide, 8.5" deep, and 14.5" tall, this sculptural head is perfectly scaled to anchor a curated bookshelf, an entryway console, or an executive study. It is in great vintage condition, displaying minor surface scuffs and an authentic patina that only serves to enhance its storied character. The distressed finish on the base adds a layer of historic depth, suggesting a piece that has been cherished across generations. Whether anchoring a traditional gallery or adding a timeless touch to a modern home, this Marcus Aurelius bust...

F. Barbedienne fonduer Ferdinand Barbedienne (6 August 1810 – 21 March 1892) was a French metalworker and manufacturer, who was well known as a bronze founder. The son of a small farmer from Calvados, he started his career as a dealer in wallpaper in Paris. In 1838 he went into partnership with Achille Collas (1795-1859), who had just invented a machine to create miniature bronze replicas of statues. Together they started a business selling miniatures of antique statues from museums all over Europe, thus democratising art and making it more accessible to households.[2] From 1843 they extended their scope by reproducing the work of living artists and also diversified by making enamelled household objects. With the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian war in 1870 the firm briefly had to switch to cannon founding owing to the shortage of metals but resumed business afterwards. Following Barbedienne's death in 1892, he was buried in the Père-Lachaise cemetery and the firm was carried on by his nephew Gustave Leblanc until 1952. Among the principal artists reproduced by the firm were Antoine Louis Barye and Auguste Rodin. The Dying Galata (Italian: Galata morente...
