Additional Information

Style: Victorian (1830-1900)

Like the latter, it refers approximately to the duration of the reign of Queen Victoria (June 20, 1837 – January 22, 1901), from which it took its name.

Characterized by a great expansion of the home furnishings market and by the new mechanized production possibilities, however not by great aesthetic innovations, but by the resumption of stylistic elements from various previous eras.

Main essence: Mahogany

It is one of the most precious and sought-after woods in cabinet making. It was discovered in Central America around 1600 and began to be imported to England in the 1700s. Much appreciated for its hardness and indestructibility, it became widespread following the blocking of walnut exports from France in 1720 and the consequent elimination of English import duties on mahogany from the colonies in America and India. The most valuable version comes from Cuba, but it became very expensive. At the end of the 18th century it began to be used also in France in Louis XVI, Directory and Empire furniture, its diffusion declined starting from when Napoleon, in 1810, forbade its import. It was generally used in the manufacture of elegant furniture, due to its characteristics and beautiful grain.
