Pair of Venetian armchairs in lacquered and gilded wood, mid-18th century

This beautiful pair of lacquered and gilded wood armchairs was made in Venice, around the mid-18th century. The structure is in finely carved, lacquered and gilded walnut wood. They have an "open" backrest featuring a "weave" workmanship typical of Venice. At the top stands out a rocaille, a decorative element also typical of the most refined Venetian cabinet-making of the mid-18th century. The armrests have volutes and countervolutes. They are supported on a padded seat and a bowed belt with a very pleasant rocaille (also typical of the Venetian Louis XV), placed in the center.
At the base we find four "en cabriole" supports with curled feet.

Authenticity
The armchairs are in perfect condition. Each component is contemporary and original. The lacquering has only been cleaned and is original from the time. They have already been exhibited at exhibitions with expert vetting. The Rubelli fabric and padding are recent. In some parts the fabric needs restoration. The lacquer has been revived in some places.

Furthermore, these armchairs have already been exhibited at the international antiques exhibition of Modenantiquaria where each object can be exhibited after passing a careful examination of integrity and quality suited to the exhibition. This examination is conducted by a team of experts called the Commission.
