Description from the seller
Elegant Venetian stool from the first half of the 20th century – lacquered, gilded, and handmade decorated
Refined stool in Venetian style, Italian craftsmanship from the first half of the 20th century, characterized by a scenographic presence and a delicate combination of colors and decorations.
The wooden structure features a light lacquer with a craquelé finish, embellished with gilded profiles and ornamental motifs. Especially charming are the small hand-painted floral decorations, which recall the tradition of Venetian furnishings and give the piece a romantic and refined character.
The seat, wide and comfortable, is padded and upholstered in olive green velvet fabric, an intense and elegant shade that creates a pleasant contrast with the light structure and the gilding. The edge is finished with a row of dark decorative studs.
The four cabriole legs, slightly curved, contribute to the characteristic lightness of Venetian forms, while the patina and small traces of time give the object that authenticity particularly appreciated in vintage furniture.
Dimensions:
Height: about 45 cm
Diameter: about 42 cm
Perfect as a dressing-table stool, bedroom seat, footstool, or decorative element, it blends splendidly into classic, shabby chic, boho chic, and eclectic interiors, but it can also become a fascinating contrasting focal point in a contemporary setting.
A small Italian piece with great decorative charm, capable of bringing elegance and lightness typical of early 20th-century Venetian style into any environment.
The photographs are an integral part of the description and show in detail the condition and the natural patina of time.
The item will be carefully packaged and shipped with tracked service.
