Art. 321
Introduction
Description Model
Large and rounded Venetian sideboard, with 4 drawers and 4 doors, inlaid with walnut burl, with carved and sculpted legs in Louis XV Venetian baroque style. The artifact is located in the splendid seventeenth-century Palazzo Ca ‘Rezzonico residence in Venice.
MODEL STRUCTURE
The cabinet is structured with 4 drawers and 4 doors.
RAW MATERIAL
The internal part of the sideboard is made of solid fir, veneered with a rare and precious Ferrarese walnut burl. The thick fillet is in boxwood, a rare and precious wood with a yellow shade. The legs are in solid walnut.
THE PROCESSINGS
The legs are hand carved. The structure is made of solid spruce in all its internal parts, assembled with vertical slats of a width of 10 cm. appropriately shaped to give it the desired shape and glued together. Coated with a sheet of a thickness of 4 mm. as in use in the luxury furnishings of the 1700s, the sideboard is inlaid with Ferrarese walnut burl prepared in an “open spot” in the centers and walnut in the contour parts, thickened by a thread inlaid with boxwood. The sideboard is designed, inlaid and polished inside the Vangelista Mobili 1960 art workshop. We studied the artisanal construction of the original model, present in the prestigious Cà Rezzonico building, to understand the working techniques of the “marangoni” who worked in the Venetian workshops during the flourishing period of the Republic of Venice.
