Description from the seller

Exclusive trio for a living room or entryway, comprising three splendid vintage wooden furnishings, distinguished by fine craftsmanship and an elegant finish in warm walnut tones.

The three pieces create a refined, striking combination, bringing together the charm of carved Baroque style with more understated, geometric lines. An original collection full of character, ideal for enhancing entryways, living rooms, studies, libraries, and classic or eclectic interiors.

The lot comprises 3 pieces:

1. Twisted Column with Corinthian-Style Capital – Height 98 cm

A splendid ornamental wooden pedestal, distinguished by a visually striking central shaft featuring an open double spiral (twist).

The structure is enhanced by a richly detailed Corinthian-style capital, finely decorated with volutes and botanical motifs inspired by acanthus leaves.

The elegant, moulded circular top provides a generous display surface, while the sturdy round base gives the piece stability and balance.

The glossy finish and warm wood tones highlight the richness of the ornamental details.

2. Classic Wooden Storage Chest – Length 120 × Depth 44 × Height 42 cm

An elegant storage chest with classic, refined lines.

It features geometric front panels framed by mouldings, a large hinged top, and distinctive bun feet.

The warm wood-toned finish accentuates the natural grain and gives the piece a particularly elegant appearance.

The spacious interior offers excellent storage capacity, making this chest as decorative as it is functional.

3. Slender, Pyramid-Shaped Plant Stand – Height 131 cm

An elegant geometric pedestal with a distinctive truncated-pyramid structure and four long legs that gradually widen towards the bottom.

The square top has clean, simple lines and is complemented by a practical intermediate shelf.

Its tall, slender silhouette gives the structure a light appearance, creating a pleasing contrast with the ornamental richness of the twisted column.

A particularly versatile piece, ideal as a plant stand or as a display stand for sculptures, ceramics, and other decorative objects.

Condition

All three pieces are in excellent vintage and structural condition, with well-preserved surfaces and an attractive sheen to the finish.

The storage chest has a fully functional lid and a spacious interior.

There are normal, minor signs of age and use, consistent with the vintage nature of the pieces and documented in the photographs.

Collection and transport

Collection in person in Broni (PV), Lombardy, Italy.

The town is located in the Oltrepò Pavese area and is easily reached via the A21 Turin–Piacenza–Brescia motorway, with particularly convenient connections from nearby Castel San Giovanni (PC).

The property has convenient vehicle access, suitable for vans and trucks, making it easy to reach the collection point and greatly facilitating loading.

Collection by professional carriers can also be arranged by prior agreement.

Transport, any packaging, and loading are the buyer’s responsibility and at their expense.

A highly charming decorative collection

This trio offers a particularly striking combination of different forms, proportions, and craftsmanship.

The sculptural richness of the twisted column, the classic elegance of the storage chest, and the geometric verticality of the plant stand create a harmonious and eye-catching ensemble.

Three distinct pieces, each with its own identity, that complement one another and bring character, warmth, and elegance to any interior.

An appealing choice for enthusiasts of vintage furnishings, decorative furniture, and accessories with a classic, eclectic style.
