AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Description of the Lot
Splendid and imposing six-light wall lamp (applique), featuring a rich and scenographic central wooden structure masterfully carved and leaf-gilded. The design fully reflects the Barocchetto Veneziano standards, with a dense decoration of scrolling foliate motifs, asymmetric volutes, and a stylized shell (rocaille) dominating the lower and central part.
From the sides of the wooden mirror, six elegant arms in patinated wrought iron extend, finished with rosette-shaped bobèches and false candle sconces that lend an authentic antique flavor. The furnishing comes from a historic and elegant Venetian residence tied to the local aristocratic tradition.
The applique has a visually impactful size and is perfect for embellishing salons, entrances or reception living areas.
Country of origin: Italy
(Manifattura Veneta)
Era: first half of the 20th century (circa 1930)
Style: Barocchetto / Rocaille Venetian
Materials: Carved wood, gilding, arms in wrought iron, electrical components.
Dimensions: 90 cm (width) x 50 cm (height) x 15 cm (depth)
Overall condition: Excellent/Good preserved condition relative to its age. The wooden structure is solid, stable and retains a splendid glossy patina with minimal and physiological signs of time on the gilding (small losses or slight abrasions from the period that enhance its charm).
The electrical system is present but needs to be restored.
