DARS703 - Pair of antique walnut balustrades, 16th century, dimensions cm W 180 x H 79 x D 20
Description:
DARS703 - This pair of antique balustrades stands out for its severe elegance and the quality of its carving. Made of solid walnut wood, it features a rhythmic sequence of turned balusters interspersed with cubes carved with floral motifs. At the ends, the uprights are embellished with fully sculpted figures, with stylized faces and bodies that evoke anthropomorphic elements. The wide, molded top rail provides solidity and a structural function as well as an aesthetic one. The last 40 cm conclude in a flag-like final section, creating a hinged balustrade section, designed to be folded away when necessary. 16th century.
