The discoveries of Pompeii and other archaeological sites in the mid-18th century resulted in enthusiasm for all things associated with the ancient Romans and Greeks. This led to one of the most well-known architectural styles in the Western world., namely Neoclassicism. Influenced by the art and culture of classical antiquity its beauty draws inspiration from Greek and Roman architecture and sculpture and emphasizes sophistication through delicate painting and precise carving.
The Neoclassical collection is characterized by elegant lines, comfort, a perfect combination of details, clear geometries, linear shapes & practicality. It is identifiable by its use of columns, gilt, classical reliefs, moderate ornamentation, and satin upholstery. Rectangular shapes and symmetrical geometries replaced the organic flowing lines of the Rococo and Baroque styles leading to a cleaner and simpler look. Woods such as oak, mahogany, veneer, and walnut are commonly used in furniture, showcasing impeccable attention to detail and delightful designs.
