Black Forest Sculptures
BLACK FOREST STYLE
Although its name evokes a mountainous region in Germany, antique Black Forest–style furniture originated in Switzerland. In Brienz, during the early 19th century, wood-carver Christian Fischer recognized the market for tourist souvenirs and helped make the village into a wood-carving destination. The Brienz Woodcarving School was founded in 1884 and had its own small zoo for studying the anatomy of animals, depictions of which are a defining aspect of the style, also known as Brienzerware.
Whimsical sculptures, often depicting bears and other Alpine animals like stags, owls, deer and boars, characterize the work produced in the area. Along with folk art and decorative objects, Black Forest furniture included benches held aloft by bears, umbrella stands carved with acorns and clock cases adorned with scrolling oak leaves. While most wood-carvers adhered to a similar realism in their designs and woods like linden, maple and walnut, their aesthetics varied.
The F. Peter Trauffer family was known for their hand-carved bear sculptures that saw the furry mammals playing instruments, smoking pipes and engaging in all sorts of human activities. They were sometimes detailed with glass eyes and integrated into functional pieces of furniture, including chair backs and bench legs, which generations of cabinetmakers created from the 1880s to the 1950s. Walter Mader and his son Heinrich frequently carved Saint Bernard sculptures that they incorporated into furniture.
As the Black Forest furniture style spread around the world through exhibitions at world’s fairs in the 19th and early 20th centuries, the rusticity of these pieces resonated at a time of increasing urbanization, inspiring other artisans.

Fabulous antique Black Forest wall barometer and thermometer.
This good size and finest quality carved barometer could be the perfect Black Forest antique to grace your home or lodge. The details in all of the hunting related sculptures reveal the workmanship of the artisan who created this one of a kind 'wall plaque barometer'. The oval wall plaque itself is made of solid oak and all of the finely carved hunting gear and dog are all hand carved out of solid nutwood. Have you also noticed the hanging bird prey underneath the perfectly carved hunter's hat and next to the rifle and hunting bag? For an artist to be able to hand-carve all these hunting elements in such details and with such perfection is something that never ceases to amaze us. What makes this particular antique even more special is the fact that, after one hundred years, it still is in mint condition.

Late 1800s Black Forest Hand Carved Nutwood Book Rack w. Reading Bear Sculptures
Located in Lisse, NL
Antique Swiss Black Forest bookends, larger and better carved than average.
Finding antique Black Forest works of art always feels like a blessing. Especially when they involve bear sculptures, because they have always been the most sought after. This decorative bookstand with sliding and folding bear bookends is in excellent condition. And what makes this antique extra special is that the larger than average bears are actually sitting on books and they are reading books as well. This near mint, Swiss antique also is more special, because it is entirely hand carved out of the more beautiful and more expensive nutwood. And over the many decades this striking nutwood has also grown a marvelous patina. There is one old and professional restauration / re-inforcement at the underside (see images 18 & 19), but on top this antique stand could hardly be in better condition. It opens and closes perfectly and it will make a great desk or table piece for any (aspiring) Black Forest or bear enthousiast. With books and bookends also representing the collecting of knowledge and gaining wisdom, this top quality antique also makes an inspiring gift for a student (of life) or for a teacher, professor, but basically for anyone.
