Coffee Table Scagliola Polychromy by Guglielmus Blaeuni, from 1731

About the Item

Scagliola Policromia coffee table from 1731 with the signature of the original Italian origin from Venice. The work is signed by the artist Giglielmo Blaeuni. At the center of the polychrome table we find an astrolabe. The astrolabe is an instrument that calculated the height of the sun but also had a dual purpose that of solving problems of spherical astronomy. On the sides of the astrolabe there are two cobalt blue circles containing other symbolic animals. To protect the work, the table is protected by glass. Scagliola is a type of fine plaster used in construction and sculpture. The same term also identifies the technique of inlaying that at the end of the 16th century early seventeenth century was born to "imitate" marbles and hard stones with a mixture of the same plaster, combined with natural glues and colored pigments. Scagliola has had a particular tradition in the city of Carpi, where it was invented at the beginning of the seventeenth century, according to tradition, by Guido Fassi from Carpi and in Val d'Intelvi, the traditional land of origin of building specialists architects but also stonemasons, decorators and plasterers who in good season carried out their activities even well outside the valley. The Scaiola coffee table is perfect to complete your living room or at the foot of a set of stylish sofas.
