AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller


I am selling 2 identical wall appliques in the Luigi XVI style.

The bow (ribbon knot) at the top: a very popular motif in the Louis XVI Style, symbolizing elegance and grace.

- The Musical Instruments (Musical Trophy): classical elements such as the trumpet, flute, and cloak or drapery, which evoke art, culture, and a taste for the ancient, characteristic of Neoclassicism.

The symmetrical and vertical composition.

The object is not from the original Louis XVI period (late 18th century), but is a later reproduction. Very popular and produced in Italy and France during a period roughly from the early 20th century (1920s) to the 1950s, as antique furniture or luxury reproductions.

In summary, the lamp is:
Style: Louis XVI
Production Period: Most likely between 1900 and 1950 (a vintage or antiquarian item from the 20th century).
