About the Item

Rare and Exquisite Early Viennese Biedermeier Bergère – Circa 1825 We are delighted to present an exceptionally elegant and rare early Viennese Biedermeier bergère, crafted in Vienna around 1825. This piece is a remarkable example of early 19th-century Austrian design and a testament to the enduring legacy of the Biedermeier period. Biedermeier furniture is revered for its refined proportions, understated elegance, and masterful craftsmanship – and this bergère is no exception. Its distinguished silhouette, sculptural form, and subtle architectural influence make it not only a functional seating piece but also a decorative statement of timeless sophistication. This particular piece is veneered in highly figured birdseye maple, a rare and precious wood prized for its vibrant texture and visual depth. The light amber tone of the French polish finish brings out the natural beauty of the veneer, enhanced by a soft, 200-year-old patina that adds warmth and authenticity. The bergère sits exceptionally well – comfortable, well-proportioned, and inviting. The upholstery has been carefully chosen to complement the tone of the wood, creating a harmonious and visually pleasing contrast that highlights the craftsmanship and design integrity of the piece. Whether placed in a classic interior or a modern minimalist setting, this bergère will elevate its surroundings with its serene elegance and historic presence. Biedermeier design, with its purity of form and graceful balance, is as relevant today as it was two centuries ago. The piece is in very good condition, with solid construction and beautifully preserved surfaces. It is a true collector's item – a rare opportunity to acquire an authentic work from the golden age of Viennese cabinetmaking. We offer secure and insured air shipping for a special discounted rate of $850. This method ensures the safest and fastest transport for valuable antiques and includes full insurance coverage. A Certificate of Authenticity will be provided with the piece.
