Additional Information

Style: Renaissance Revival

This style is associated with all furniture and objects which, due to their characteristics, recall the trends and style in vogue in the Renaissance.
During the Renaissance, some furniture in rich houses took on greater importance with the addition of elevations and canopies closed with sheets and fabrics.
In public and religious buildings the wooden benches, bookcases and choirs are more impressive and decorated.
This style develops initially in Italy, where the artists are inspired by classical sources; only later will the new culture expand into Europe.
Subsequently this trend will be present in the Kingdom of Naples and Sicily, in Spain, in Flanders, in Germany and England.

Main essence:

Silver Fir

Soft coniferous wood, used for rustic furniture or to build the chest, that is the structure, of furniture then veneered in more precious woods. It has been used since ancient times, its most valuable use is, in the Spruce variant, in the inlays of French antique furniture of the '700 . The spruce, more typical of northern Europe, in Italy grows mainly in the Eastern Alps at altitudes above 1300 m. The noblest use of this essence was in the construction of violins, guitars and cellos: Stradivari himself produced his famous violins with this wood.

Poplar

Essence considered "poor", it is a white wood, with yellowish or greyish shades, light and tender, which is easily damaged. It is used for rustic furniture or in the construction of furniture. The most valuable use it has had in the history of furniture is in Germany, in the 19th century, for veneers and inlays in the Biedermeier period.
