About the Item

Ten identical Biedermeier board chairs Southern Germany Ash First half of the 19th century Dimensions: H x W x D: 89 x 44 x 42 cm - Seat height board: 45 cm - with upholstered cushion 48 cm Description: Rare set of ten identical Biedermeier chairs. Slightly flared square legs with lateral leg bracing. All wooden parts are connected by means of mortise and tenon joints and additionally fixed with wooden nails. The nail heads can be seen, among other places, at the connection points of the legs and frame. The straight frames are decorated with a carved frieze on the underside. The boards serving as seats are rounded on the outside and discreetly profiled. The backrests have curved decorative slats that are vaguely reminiscent of the shape of a lyre. The upper backrest is curved and rounded at the top for good seating comfort. The upper corners, i.e., the area where the back does not normally rest, stand out elegantly from the rounded shape. The solid ash wood with its lively grain not only contributes significantly to the design of the chairs, but also impresses with its high bending strength and elasticity – properties that have always made it an ideal material for durable seating furniture. We have fitted one of the chairs with an upholstered seat cushion as an example. We are happy to manufacture seat cushions of this type for all chairs according to your personal taste. Condition: Refurbished condition. Stable and suitable for everyday use.

Set of 8 Partially Early 19th German Biedermeier Saxe-Coburg Provenance Chairs
Located in Berlin, DE
Set of 8 partially Early 19th German Biedermeier Saxe-Coburg provenance chairs: 3 chairs with inventory stamp of Ehrenburg Palace in Coburg (soth Germany)/House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, 5 chairs hand-crafted after their model in the late 20th century: a trapezoidal seat on four slender saber-shaped legs; curved, shovel-shaped back with carved and ebonized central motif depicting a lyre. All chairs upholstered with black horsehair fabric. 3 chairs of the set of 8 show the inventory stamp of the famous Ehrenburg Palace in Coburg / South Germany and are documented in the Ehrenburg inventory register. According to a letter from the Bayerische Verwaltung der Staatlichen Schlösser, Gärten und Seen, Munich from 1991, the chairs were sold or disposed of in the 1920s at the latest (see photo). In order to be able to use the chairs in a dining room, the former owner had added five more chairs in the late 20th century, which had been elaborately hand-crafted after the model of the three Ehrenburg Palace chairs by a German furniture maker. Ehrenburg Palace was built and used by the Dukes of Saxe-Coburg (and Gotha from 1826 on) as a representative town residence. Duke Ernst I (reigned 1806–1844) began to remodel Ehrenburg Palace only a few years after he came to power. It was then that the building acquired its impressive neo-Gothic façade, designed by the architect Karl Friedrich von Schinkel. For the furnishing of the rooms, Duke Ernst I commissioned the French architect André-Marie Renié-Grétry. Between 1816 and 1840 the apartments were renovated in the French Empire style on the basis of his designs and filled with magnificent furniture...
