Description from the seller

Splendid studio set in Italian Neorenaissance style, dating from the period around the late 19th and early 20th centuries, consisting of a refined desk and its coordinated chair, model “Fratina.” The furniture is entirely made of solid wood, finely hand-carved with geometric lunette motifs along the edge of the top, and decorated on the fronts of the drawers with elegant foliate scrolls and central medallions. The legs are finely turned in a baluster shape and connected by a sturdy H-shaped crosspiece, which ensures stability and gives the typical solidity of period furnishings. The chair features a tall backrest adorned with carved finials and a leather-upholstered seat, firmly fixed with original darkened metal tacks. Thanks to its harmonious dimensions and not excessively bulky footprint, this set fits perfectly in both classical studies and modern interiors as a bold, characterful contrast piece. The set is in generally good conservational condition, showing a beautiful natural patina and small, normal signs of aging on the surfaces that attest to its authenticity and history.
