About the Item

19th Century Biedermeier Chest Of Drawers South-West-Germany Walnut Biedermeier around 1835 Dimensions: H x W x D: 92 x 114 x 54 cm Description: Three-tier piece of furniture standing on square feet. Two things are immediately noticeable about this chest of drawers. Firstly, the impressive walnut grain pattern, which runs in perfect symmetry not only on the front, but also, cut from the same trunk, on the sides and the top panel. On the other hand, there is the unusual shape with the rounded plinth and the strongly bulging section below the top panel. This design is typical of the Palatinate in the late Biedermeier period. The inset maple keyhole surrounds are discreetly restrained. The drawer fronts are slightly warped due to their age. In good condition: Cleanly refurbished condition. Shellac hand polish. The drawers run smoothly, the locks work. Worth knowing: When restoring antique furniture, there are very different approaches and, due to different existing situations, very different possibilities. If we find a piece of furniture with an old wax or shellac base, the surface can be cleaned and refreshed. If the piece of furniture has been given a "modern" finish in an older restoration, there is usually no way around stripping and sanding. This is then at the expense of the patina. As different as we humans are, our tastes are just as different. While some people like their furniture with all the traces of time, others like a clean, refurbished surface. When we talk about "original condition" today, we actually mean furniture that has been marked by time. But one thing is certain: when the piece of furniture was delivered by the master craftsman to his customer almost 200 years ago, it certainly had no patina. So what is the true "original condition"? You can find a very similar piece of furniture in the reference book: Rainer Haaff - Biedermeier Welten p. 65
