A pair of antique carved mahogany flower stands (pedestals) in Victorian style with Neo-Baroque influences, featuring ball-and-claw legs and solid wood, dimensions 82 cm high, 38 cm wide, 36 cm deep, weight 22 kg.
Description from the seller
A pair of antique, carved mahogany flower stands or pedestals, probably from the Neo-Baroque or late Victorian period. The furniture features characteristic, richly carved columns, stylized leaf motifs, and curved, animal claw (ball-and-claw) legs, made of solid wood.
Features
Style: Neo-Baroque or late Victorian, with elements reminiscent of the "ball-and-claw" leg motifs of Chippendale furniture.
Material: Probably solid mahogany or hardwood, stained walnut, polished.
Design: Carved column, relief decorations on the lower part, and stable, curved legs.
Function: Typically used as a stand for displaying indoor plants, vases, statues, or other decorative objects, but they could also be used as lamp holders.
The furniture style, especially the "ball-and-claw" motif, is closely associated with the 18th-century English furniture designer Thomas Chippendale.
Great Britain (England): The Chippendale style and the widespread use of mahogany (usually Honduran mahogany) first spread to England in the mid-18th century, where it became extremely popular. Pieces made there are often finely carved, and similar styles of furniture were also made in the late 19th century.
Both are in very good condition, with minor signs of use. Extremely decorative high furniture, 92 cm high, the diameter of the top table is 33 cm and the lower small table part is 25 cm high.
I can send it in two separate packages, carefully packaged, registered, insured.
