LOUIS XV

This style may be the most characteristic of the French baroque era. The lack of symmetry, the overabundance of shell motifs and twisted leaves makes this style to be extremely ornate. The most important decorative element of this period is without any doubt the “Rocaille”. Designs are full of fantasy and abstraction that makes this period quite unique in itself. The lack of symmetry of the shell type motif makes it blend with all the curves and become a complete visual experience that invites the eyes to flow dynamically. The style of Louis XV reign is full of creativity; imagination and visual excess.
