About the Item

Exceptionally Rare Ebonized Viennese Biedermeier Bureau-Commode – Vienna, circa 1820–1825 We are pleased to offer an extraordinarily rare and museum-quality ebonized Biedermeier bureau-commode, crafted in Vienna between 1820 and 1825—the golden age of Biedermeier design. Ebonized Biedermeier furniture represents the rarest expression of the Biedermeier aesthetic, accounting for only 1–2% of all Biedermeier pieces ever produced. Created almost exclusively in Vienna, these works are sought after by collectors, connoisseurs, and leading interior designers worldwide. This particular example stands out with its elegant, ebonized pearwood exterior and its beautifully crafted interior veneered in fine maple, offering four drawers and a shelf behind a drop-front writing surface. The writing desk and interior accents feature tasteful ebonization, creating a sophisticated visual contrast. The top drawer glides open effortlessly, showcasing the high quality of craftsmanship characteristic of Viennese Biedermeier. The original brass hardware and functioning lock remain intact, adding to the historical integrity and authenticity of this piece. It is finished in traditional French polish, which enhances the natural beauty of the wood and preserves its subtle sheen. Dimensions: Height: 40 in. (102 cm) Width: 50 in. (127 cm) Depth: 23.5 in. (60 cm) This timeless piece is in very good condition, ready to enrich any elegant interior—whether classical, transitional, or modern. Its clean lines and refined proportions make it a versatile and lasting design statement. Biedermeier’s influence on modernism is well documented, and few antiques blend as seamlessly into contemporary spaces. We are proud to offer a Certificate of Authenticity with this bureau-commode, attesting to its provenance and historical significance. For the safest and most efficient transport of such a fine antique, we offer air shipment worldwide for a discounted rate of $1,700, including full insurance coverage. As a dedicated gallery specializing exclusively in Austrian/Viennese Biedermeier for over three decades, we invite you to explore our comprehensive collection of more than 120 carefully curated pieces from 1820–1830—available to view in our Vienna showroom, in the very heart of where Biedermeier was born.
