Rococo Boudoir

In female novels of the Marie Antoinette era, descriptions of the boudoir are often found. This is an old women's bedroom with multiple features.

Maybe not everyone will be interested in the topic of a ladies' historical boudoir, but history cannot be silenced. The theme of the boudoir interior was very well revealed in the Rococo era.

Designers do not forget about this branch of the development of interior styling. It’s a joke, in such a cozy bedroom the lady looked in a huge mirror, powdered and blushed, and the maid helped her get ready for the light. In addition, at that time the epistolary genre was developed. There were no tablets then.

The main indicators of the Rococo interior stylistics are the ease and grace of stucco, because the Rococo style is an idea and a symbol. A symbol of the luxurious and cloudless life of the high society of the French nobility. What did Marie Antoinette say there? If there is no bread now, we will eat cakes. This is some underlying text. It is a pity that this determined and adventurous lady ended her life on the scaffold.

So, in the 17th and 18th centuries, the heyday of rocky art reigned. It was a time of refined aristocratic women who went out into the light in the evenings, danced all night long, and came home in the morning, and almost fell into a luxurious bed almost without feeling. And the next day, they again awaited the life of carefree moths. And for such ladies, the elegant rococo style was invented.

In the daytime, having a rest from yesterday’s ball, they sat on elegant chairs with arched backs, pulled an inkwell and a quill pen, and began to scribble letters to their friends and fans. Since the epistolary genre is not particularly welcome now, in a modern boudoir room it is logical to provide a place for a laptop instead of writing instruments. The Rococo style is associated with relaxation, bliss, with the beauty of trinkets around and with a pleasant pastime.

Throughout the frame of the oval boudoir room, a graceful ornamental rhythm is visible. These are curls of stucco molding, these are semicircular forms of furniture, and arch-shaped curtains and draperies. Arranging the bedroom in a rococo style, placing in it numerous statues of slender antique bathers, playful nymphs, little cupids, you will bring rococo elements to the room. By the way, the walls of the boudoir are usually decorated with frescoes, decorated with old sentimental paintings, or simply covered with tapestries for pastoral subjects.
