1860s Danish Antique Rococo Furniture
Wood
Rococo was an aesthetic movement in the fine and decorative arts in the 18th century that found its inspiration in nature and fostered an overall lightness and delicacy of form, construction and ornament in interior design. Rococo furniture, while greatly influenced by trends in Italy and Germany, is often called Louis XV style — the movement having reached its best expression during that sybaritic French king’s reign.
The term “rococo” is thought to be a portmanteau of the French words rocaille and coquilles — “rock” and “shells” — organic motifs frequently used in architecture and design of the style.
When it comes to authentic Rococo furniture's characteristics, it is above all sensuous and social. The furniture of earlier eras in Europe had been heavy in every sense; the Rococo period saw the appearance of light-framed upholstered armchairs, side chairs and occasional tables that could easily be moved to form conversational circles.
The signal detail of Rococo furniture design is the gently curved cabriole, or S-shaped chair-, table-, and cabinet-leg. It imitates the bend of a tree limb or a flower stem. In a further reference to nature, furnishings were often asymmetrical and painted white, or in soft, pastel shades. Rococo has become a timeless style, and as the furniture pieces presented on 1stDibs demonstrate, its playful, sculptural forms can provide visual excitement to contemporary, clean-lined spaces.

19th Century, Hunter Mantel Clock with Rococo Decoration, Vincenti & Cie, 16.5″
Located in SANT ADRIÀ DE BESÒS, ES
A striking sculptural mantel clock depicting a hunter sounding his horn, with a long gun in his other hand and a dark-finished deer at his feet. Oak foliage, acorns and a rocky landscape frame the scene above an elaborate Rococo-style case. The figure rewards close inspection: textured clothing, decorative cuffs, buckled straps and carefully defined facial features contrast with the smoother surfaces of the tall boots. A small hunting accessory hangs freely from a twisted-wire suspension, adding a distinctive dimensional detail to the composition. The modelling extends throughout the surrounding foliage and the textured surface of the animal. The richly ornamented case combines scrolling supports, pierced decoration, floral sprays and shell motifs. Two pale inset panels with applied gilt ornaments flank the white enamel dial, which features black Roman numerals, a minute track and open-circle hands. The gilding retains an attractive warm colour and gives the clock a strong decorative presence. The movement bears two stamps: “Vincenti & Cie - Médaille d’Argent” and “Fabrique Edward Barrard & Cie de Paris.” These inscriptions identify the names marked on the movement; the maker of the decorative case remains unconfirmed. The accompanying original winding key is included. Dimensions: Height 42 cm × width 34 cm × depth 13 cm (16.54 × 13.39 × 5.12 inches). Weight: 5.6 kg (12.35 lb) Condition: Good overall antique condition, with well-preserved gilding and light surface wear consistent with age. Localised enamel loss is present around the left winding aperture. Fine lines resembling cracks are visible in the decorative surround beneath the left inset panel. The rear movement opening is uncovered, as shown in the photographs. The movement was tested for 24 hours, during which the clock ran steadily and the striking mechanism operated correctly. This records its performance during the test period and does not constitute a guarantee of future operation or timekeeping accuracy. As with antique mechanical clocks...
