Style: Barocchetto (1720-1770)
This term refers, specifically to furniture, to a part of the production carried out in Italy in the period between the Rococo era and the first phase of neoclassicism.It is characterised by the formal and decorative structure still rigidly in adherence to the dictates dear to the Baroque period (hence the term barocchetto) and to the Louis XIV fashions and yet the new times can be seen in the adoption of smaller volumes, more elegant decorative modules, often directly inspired by French fashion, but always executed with rigorous principles of ornamental symmetry.
The tendency to assimilate formal and volumetric innovations but not to incorporate their ornamental elaboration finds a natural explanation in Italy in the fact that in this century the great aristocracy is experiencing an unstoppable political and economic decline.
If in the previous century there was a great profusion of furnishings intended to decorate recently built homes, to proudly show the power of the commissioning family, in In the 18th century, the focus was on updating the building with only the furniture strictly necessary for the new needs imposed by fashion or functional needs.
The old scenographic apparatus was maintained and the new must not contrast too much.

18th Century / 1701 - 1800Main 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.Material: Walnut Burl
