Pair of carved and gilded wood benches, Rome, Baroque period, second half of the 18th century Measurements: cm W 114 x H 52 x D 52. Seat height 43 cm Price: confidential negotiation Object accompanied by a certificate of authenticity This elegant pair of two-seater benches was made in the second half of the 18th century in Rome. The structure, in richly carved and gilded wood, has the characteristics of the Rococo period. The band under the seat has a mixtilinear profile and is carved with rocaille motifs and rich floral relief decoration in the central part. The four arched and sinuous legs have carvings on the uprights themselves and at the end of the foot a curled volute emerges. The rear uprights, carved with a curled terminal, are higher than the seat, in order to vertically slim the image of the benches. The seat is lined in velvet from a later period. These benches can be displayed in pairs or individually in entrances or hallways, in living rooms and studies or in a bedroom at the foot of the bed. They can also be placed under large paintings. Very decorative, bright and graceful, they are suitable for both contexts characterized by antique and modern furniture.

Period: Second half of the 18th century
