Lot 383: * Demi Corbeille Headboard Footboard "Venetian" – Louis XV Transition Style
Sold for: £1,100
Demi Corbeille Headboard Footboard “Venetian” – Louis XV Transition Style (Loc: FR842)This Venetian Demi Corbeille headboard and footboard set is an exquisite interpretation of the Louis XV Transition style, hand-carved from solid wood and finished in antique cream lacquer with refined gold leaf accents. Its dramatic serpentine silhouette is enriched with rhythmic foliate ornamentation, including a masterfully carved floral cresting of roses and acanthus leaves crowning the shaped headboard, mirrored by a central bouquet motif on the curved footboard. Both panels are upholstered in luxurious pink silk damask with fleur-de-lis and botanical patterns, secured by continuous dark brass nailhead trim that emphasises the precision-carved volutes and flowing S-curves. Raised on slender cabriole legs with foliate knees and scrolled feet, these majestic pieces exemplify Venetian craftsmanship as interpreted by Ateliers Allot. Please Note: This listing is for the headboard and footboard only. It does not include side rails, a bed frame, or a mattress. Dimensions: 180 × 160 × 50 cm (W × H × D) Retail price: €12,500 [Loc FR842]
