Description
Pair of armchairs in neo-Renaissance style, XIX century. Walnut wood. Seats and backs upholstered in burgundy velvet. They show marks of use and wear. Some old xylophages not active. In need of refinishing. Measurements: 110 x 68 x 75 cm. Pair of armchairs in walnut wood, with the front completely worked with fine phytomorphic and zoomorphic carving. It responds to a Renaissance style, which as a "revival" is recovered in the nineteenth century. Thus, from the split pediment of the top to the clawed front legs, there is no detail of the structure (except for the back) that has not been meticulously carved. Ram heads decorate the armrests, protruding like gargoyles. The skirts combine masks with filigree scrolls, rosettes and scrolls, which continue on the uprights, between foliated tongues. Lion heads crown the pinnacles of the back.
