Product description
Pair of wall shelves in plaster depicting a goat or ram, made in the early 20th Century. Dimensions: Ø 16 cm Ø 16 cm H 22 cm. Antique ceramic shelves are fascinating objects that combine functionality with the aesthetics of the past. They represent a piece of furniture and craftsmanship history, and can add a touch of elegance and authenticity to any environment. They were often made of majolica or porcelain, materials that feature detailed decorations and vibrant colors. Artisanal techniques such as hand-painting, carving, and glazing lend uniqueness to each piece. From Baroque to Art Nouveau, passing through Neoclassical, antique shelves reflect the artistic styles of different eras. Floral motifs, landscapes, mythological figures, and scenes from daily life are common in the decorations. Important production centers include Italy (Castelli, Faenza, Naples), France (Limoges), Germany (Meissen), and Spain (Valencia).
