Additional Information
Style: Neo-Renaissance Revival
Stylistic revival, of the 20th century, of the forms typical of the Renaissance style.
This is a style that re-proposes, looking at the grandeur of the past, decorative motifs and ornaments typical of the 16th century.
Masks, frames, columns carved with herms that make up architectural structures typical of Renaissance palaces, are the elements that characterize the neo-Renaissance style.
These elements will remain in the production of furnishings until the early 1900s, contaminating themselves with floral elements.

19th Century / 1801 - 1900Main essence: Beech
It is a semi-hard wood which, unfortunately, is easily wormed, therefore it is considered poor. Due to its light but variegated shades, from blond to reddish, it was nevertheless appreciated by French cabinetmakers. It was mainly used for furniture structures or, as an alternative to walnut, by provincial English furniture makers for popular works, mostly in the 1700s. The noblest use is due to Thonèt, who applied the steam bending of the beech in the making of the furniture, in particular for the chairs that took his name.Other customers have searched:
