FAQs

Italian Baroque and Rococo furniture styles originated in the 17th and 18th centuries, characterised by elaborate carvings, dynamic curves, and a strong emphasis on theatrical display and opulence.

These pieces were typically constructed from solid hardwoods like lime or beech, then finished with gesso, hand-applied gold leaf or metallic paint, and often distressed with polychrome pigments.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of age such as micro-craquelure in the gesso, hand-carved tool marks, traditional joinery methods, and natural oxidation of the metallic leaf.

Pairing an ornate, historical piece with minimalist modern seating and neutral backdrops creates a striking focal point that balances traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design.

Maintain gilt-painted surfaces by keeping them away from direct sunlight and humidity fluctuations, dusting gently with a soft dry cloth, and avoiding chemical polishes.
