Late Louis XVI or Early Biedermeier Chest of Drawers, Walnut, circa 1800-1810
About the Item
Late Classicist chest of drawers
Southern Germany
Walnut
Early 19th century
Dimensions: H x W x D: 83 x 124 x 60 cm
Description:
Strictly cubist chest of drawers from the transitional period of German Classicism, the so-called Zopfstil, to Biedermeier.
The drawer fronts are divided into three panels veneered in walnut root. The dark wood of the middle section contrasts beautifully with the light, inlaid key plates in the shape of coats of arms. These fittings, which are certainly original, speak the language of the early Biedermeier period, as do the flush plinth section and the absence of handles and other fittings. The geometric arrangement of the surfaces, on the other hand, is still in keeping with classicist taste. This design can also be found on the sides and, particularly beautifully with cross-cut stems in a mirror-image arrangement, on the top panel of the chest of drawers.
The construction of the cabinet body is worth mentioning, as it is rarely seen in this form. Massive morticed-in boards connect the crossbars to the back panel and thus ensure absolute stability. This - and the use of selected oak wood for the construction of the drawers - ensures that the drawers, which are only pulled by the key, still run smoothly and cleanly even today, after more than 200 years.
In addition to the original locks, all three original keys have been preserved.
