A Rare, Very Decorative Oak Hall Bench,

$ 110,000
  • Description
    A Rare, Very Decorative Oak Hall Bench,
    beautiful carved after a design of Daniel Marot.
    Interesting to see is, that the carved middle panel
    with playing children is exactly after a design of:
    Daniel Marot, ( 1661-1752 )
    and this design is illustrated in the book about Daniel Marot
    By: Dr.M.D.Ozinga.
    The bench still has the original old patination and
    was never painted,
    the bench dates from circa: 1715.
    in original great condition with original old patination
    214cm long 135cm high 40cm deep
    Price on Application.


    Attributed to:
    Ignatius van Logteren, Amsterdam, (1685 – 1732.)
    Interesting to see is that at the front of a gentleman’s house
    at the Herengracht 433 in Amsterdam two of exactly
    the same profile masks are carved above the front door.
    Ignatius van Logteren has done many facades and
    interior designs and carved oak stair cases for houses in Amsterdam and many of them
    after designs of: Daniel Marot.
    Even more interesting is, to compare our bench
    with the famous, large Dutch Delft blue
    and white tiles, made for: Hampton Court,
    ( now in the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum.)
    These tiles have exactly the same panel and subject with the playing children as on our bench.
    We have never seen this subject somewhere else,
    so it might be possible that there is a connection
    between our hall bench and the blue and white tiles made for Hampton Court.
