About the Item

A rare and distinguished set of six hand-carved walnut dining chairs, by the celebrated Fratelli Testolini of Venice, a prestigious woekshop known for supplying high-end furnishings to noble Venetian families in the late 19th and early 20th century. These chairs come directly from the dining room of an aristocratic Venetian residence, retaining the authenticity, refinement and cultural prestige of their original environment. Crafted from premium walnut and entirely carved by hand, the set displays the hallmarks of Venetian craftsmanship: elegant lines, sculpted backs with refined motifs, and beautifully shaped legs.
