The protagonist, or rather the protagonists of our Classic Monday today, are a refined group of furnishings that constitute a studio of full Liberty taste.

Italianization of the Art Nouveau French, Liberty spread throughout Europe from the end of the nineteenth century and in the early years of the following one. As the origin of the term denounces, the homeland of this artistic and cultural movement was France, from which it spread throughout the Old Continent.

Initially born as an ornamental style, Liberty was in fact immediately appreciated precisely for the extremely decorative shapes, but at the same time elegant, that distinguish it.

As it had been for other currents in the past, even with Liberty nature was taken as a reference model. However, the most naturalistic and wild side was set aside, preferring the most adaptable to the aesthetic conception of the time. Here then the plant racemes and leaves are transformed into sinuous lines that create surprising graphic games. This research is fully achieved in our furnishings, adorned with refined symmetrical weaves of ivy leaves, threaded in brass and inlaid in briar. Nature is manipulated and used by the craftsman as an element that decorates and embellishes the furniture.
But the sinuous shapes are not relegated only to elements, albeit exceptional, decorative.

The wavy, airy line becomes an integral part of the architecture and, in our case, of the furniture.

Intended for a luxurious bourgeois studio, probably a city studio, as shown by the small size, our furnishings are characterized not only by the extreme attention to the smallest finishes, but also to the shapes. The compactness of the structure is in fact wisely lightened by the surfaces moved. The desk, the chest of drawers and the showcase have an architectural setting, played on the alternation between glass doors, small compartments and open compartments with lowered arches, almost as if they were the facades of buildings of a modern European city of the early twentieth century.

As we already mentioned, the attention to detail is meticulous; from the brass threads that outline the ivy leaves, to their re-proposal in carving and fretwork in the railing that adorns the top of the chest of drawers. The use of materials is also very careful; from the oak wood with which they are built, to the opal glass dowels, which in the bookcase take on a particular color that turns from yellow to green.

Sitting room certainly of great class, it was a luxury furniture that still today is able to evoke the fully Liberty culture.
