Italian Barocchetto Console, Genova, circa 1760

About the Item

Lacquered and gilded pure gold Faux marble top Dimensions: cm W 110 x D 45 x H 101 Barocchetto Italiano (DAL 1720 AL 1780) With the economic decline of the Italian aristocracy, the smaller proportions of Rococo furniture lent themselves to update the furnishings of the palace. Furniture was produced, mainly in the Veneto, with a typically Baroque formal layout, but with more minute proportions and more elegant decorative modules typical of Rococo furniture that did not contrast with the old Baroque scenographic furniture. This style, which spread throughout the peninsula, was called Italian Baroque. Venice, already renowned for its painted and lacquered furniture, was the center of the development of this style, where it lasted well beyond the mid-eighteenth century. In addition to the Veneto, furniture in this style was built by the Genoese cabinetmakers heirs of Anton Maria Maragliano (1664 - 1739) and in Piedmont, where the productions of Luigi Prinotto (1706 - 1790) and Pietro Piffetti (1701 - 1777) stood out. The latter at the court of the Savoy left authentic masterpieces of admirable inlays encrusted on furniture of very happy formal design. Bibliography: Lelio Canonero, Barocchetto genovese. Aldo Martello, 1962.
