"Large Suite Of Eight Louis XV Style Valances – 19th Century"
In gilded wood, to be restored Rare set of eight Louis XV style valances, 19th century, in carved and gilded wood. They come from a former ballroom of an 18th century castle, where they adorned the high windows of a vast reception room. Refined work, typical of 19th century taste, presenting beautiful animated lines, shells and rocaille foliage. Original gilding, to be restored (visible losses, wear and chips). The set consists of four valances of 210 cm in width and four others of 253 cm. I also have some original elements (moldings and decorative fragments) allowing some repairs, but not all of them. A rare decorative set in terms of number, dimensions and provenance, ideal for a decoration project or the restoration of a historic interior.
