About the Item

An Italian painted wood settee from the late 19th century, with floral décor and new upholstery. This Italian painted wood settee from the late 19th century combines Venetian elegance with timeless craftsmanship. Crafted around 1880, this piece features an open back with a serpentine rail and intricately pierced splats. The frame, painted in a soft cream and yellow palette, is adorned with delicate floral décor of pink blossoms and green foliage, showcasing an artisanal touch characteristic of Venetian design. The scrolling arms gracefully frame the settee, which has been newly upholstered in neutral linen, adding a modern touch while preserving its antique charm. Brass nailhead accents along the seat's edge provide a subtle yet refined detail. Raised on six legs, with the front ones tapered and painted, this settee exudes sophistication and balance. Its light tones and floral embellishments make it an ideal addition to various settings. Use it in a living room as a statement piece, in a bedroom at the foot of a bed, or in an entryway to welcome guests with its graceful design. The painted details and fresh upholstery blend antique character with contemporary versatility, allowing this piece to complement both traditional and modern interiors. Perfect for creating a serene, elegant atmosphere, this Venetian settee offers both decorative appeal and functional seating.
