Jugendstil Sculptural Armchair in Oak Leather and Brass 1900-1910
About the Item
Armchair, oak, leather, brass, Europe, 1900-1910
This meticulously crafted armchair is created between 1900 and 1910 and stands as an embodiment of the Jugendstil movement’s ideals. The chair has many wonderful features, to start with the diagonal connection between the backrest and the front legs, giving depth and emphasizing structural integrity. Secondly, the chair's backrest and armrests are elegantly curved and skillfully cut, which follow the organic, flowing lines reminiscent of natural patterns. An important feature of this chair is the seamless construction, with the wood joints hidden from view, giving the piece a sleek and unified appearance. The brown leather, which is secured the the framework with decorative studs in brass, has aged wonderfully, featuring a beautiful patina.
The design is derived from a famous model designed by Richard Riemerschmid (1868-1957), a pivotal figure in the Jugendstil movement, who first showcased the design at the Deutsche Kunstausstellung in Dresden in 1899. His design, originally made for a music salon, was an instant success. As a result, the 'Musikzimmer' chair was immediately put into production by the Vereinigte Werkstätten für Kunst und Handwerk in Munich, with subsequent manufacturing and selling also taking place in Britain by the company Liberty. Many small-scale furniture makers, inspired by the success of Riemerschmid’s model, produced their own interpretations. The chair presented here is one such example, staying true to Riemerschmid’s vision with its fluid lines and thoughtful proportions.
Kindly note that the piece is in good, used condition with signs of age and use, common for a piece this age. For further details, we encourage you to reach out to our team of design specialists.
