About the Item
The set of three wood inlay panels intricately depicts a trio of musician clowns, each masterfully crafted with precision and artistry.
The first panel features a graceful violin brought to life by a clown musician, adding whimsical charm to the scene.
In the second panel, a clown is captured mid-performance with the clarinet.
Completing the set, a merry clown strums a classic guitar, filling the space with vibrant energy.
The timeless elegance of Italian craftsmanship is shown with this exquisite set of three Mid Century wood clown panels meticulously crafted by the renowned artisan, Gargiulo Vincenzo. Dating back to the 1970s.
Together, these panels celebrate the art of music and the whimsical spirit of clowning, combining intricate woodwork with playful imagery to create a captivating ensemble making them an ideal choice for discerning collectors and design enthusiasts alike.
The stamp on the back of the panels, "INLAID WOOD WORK Gargiulo Vincenzo 80067 SORRENTO," signifies their origin and authenticity.
Sorrento, a town located along the Amalfi Coast of Italy, is renowned for its exquisite woodwork inlay, known as Sorrento marquetry or intarsia. This traditional craft dates back centuries and is deeply rooted in the region's history and culture.
Sorrento's wood inlay craftsmanship involves the intricate arrangement of various types of wood to create decorative designs and scenes. Skilled artisans meticulously carve and shape pieces of different woods, including walnut, cherry, maple, and pear, to form intricate patterns and images. These pieces are then meticulously fitted together like a puzzle and embedded into a base wood, typically cedar or lime, to create stunning furniture, musical instruments, jewelry boxes, and decorative items.
One of the distinguishing features of Sorrento's wood inlay is its use of geometric patterns.
