Additional Information

Style: Bourbon Restoration (1815-1830)

Starting from the Congress of Vienna in 1815, the arts also expressed the return to monarchical order and the desire for order after the years of war.

The stylistic characteristics are an evolution of the Empire style, but with simpler lines and stripped of the typical symbols of the Napoleonic period.

There is greater attention to the practicality of the furniture and domestic use.

Main essence: Walnut

Walnut wood comes from the plant whose botanical name is juglans regia , probably originally from the East but very common in Europe. Light or dark brown in color, it is a hard wood with a beautiful grain, widely used in antique furniture. It was the main essence in Italy throughout the Renaissance and later had a good diffusion in Europe, especially in England, until the advent of mahogany. It was used for solid wood furniture and sometimes carvings and inlays, its only big limitation is that it suffers a lot from woodworm. In France it was widely used more than anything else in the provinces. In the second half of the eighteenth century its use decreased significantly because mahogany and other exotic woods were preferred.
