Lot 765: An Italian Sorrento Style Inlaid Walnut Dining Suite
An Italian dining suite in the Sorrento style, comprising a dining table and a set of matching upholstered chairs. The table features a serpentine-edged top finished in walnut veneers with a high-gloss lacquer. The top is decorated with elaborate multi-wood marquetry inlays depicting floral and foliate motifs, including scrolling acanthus leaves and central floral sprays. The set of matching dining chairs features carved wooden frames with cabriole legs and button-tufted upholstery in a neutral tan fabric. The furniture is characteristic of late 20th-century Italian Rococo revival production. No maker marks are visible, though a small adhesive lot tag is present on the table edge.
Condition report:
The suite is in generally good used condition. The high-gloss finish on the table top remains bright but shows light surface scratches and a layer of dust consistent with storage. The carved chair frames exhibit minor scuffing and wear to the finish, particularly on the legs and arms. The upholstery appears to be in good order with no significant staining or tears visible in the images provided.
