Pair of Italian Baroque Style Gilt Wood Benches C. 1920

Italian Baroque style benches, each radiating the opulence and grandeur of the period. These benches are a testament to the lavish aesthetics of the Baroque ers, with their gilt wood frames finished in 22-carat gold leaf that glistens under the light, offering a regal luster that instantly elevates any room’s decor. The cream velvet upholstery complements the golden glosw of the benches, inviting one to sit in comfort and style. The upholstery is embellished with nail-head trim, a detail that provides a handsome contrast to the soft velvet and adds an element of texture and precision.

Carved into the wood with exceptional skill are center cartouches, each surrounded by ornate garlands that drape elegantly. Acanthus leaves and scrolls add the the benches’ intricate design, their curves and flourishes capturing the dramatic and dynamic spirit of Baroque art.

The benches would make a great statement in an entryway, at the foot of a luxurious bed, or as accent seating in a living or dining room, offering a touch of historical elegance to any setting.
