Biedermeier Center Tables

Biedermeier Style

The authentic Biedermeier furniture on 1stDibs is representative of the first modern European decorative style not dictated by the tastes of the aristocracy. Following the Napoleonic wars, a growing, wealthy urban middle class in the German-speaking states of Central Europe began to demand rights and privileges once granted only to nobles. To avoid trouble, the upwardly striving confined their political discussions to one another’s homes. And so the salon was born.

Cabinetmakers in cities such as Vienna, Berlin and Mainz began to offer goods that reflected the tastes and needs of the new class. The makers of Biedermeier chairs, tables and other furniture used little or no gilding, silver hardware or other lavish ornament. Ebonized trims are common on Biedermeier cabinetry, and neoclassical elements — lyre-shaped chair splats, carved scrollwork, table supports shaped like Greek columns. But the strongest aesthetic statement came from the wood — richly-grained, honey-colored, often book-matched veneers of walnut and fruitwood.

There are two iconic Biedermeier furniture forms, both made to outfit rooms designed for conversation. One is the sofa, deeply upholstered with a strong, architectural wooden frame. The second is the circular pedestal table, which stood at the center of the room, offering a surface on which to place coffee and cake services; or to roll out a map, or sketch out ideas on paper.

“Biedermeier” was originally a derogatory term — it derives from the pen names of two German magazine writers who mocked bourgeois manners. Looking at the elegant and refined antique, new and vintage Biedermeier furniture offered on 1stDibs, that is now an amusing irony.

Biedermeier 19th Century Cherrywood Dining Table/ Center Table, Austria ca. 1830
Located in Lichtenberg, AT
Charming round Biedermeier dining/ center table from the renowed period in Austria around 1830. A wonderful handcrafted 19th century so-called "vase table" standing on an artfully designed, bulbous cherry veneered base. The absolutely amazing looking round table plate impresses with fine mirrormatched cherrywood which builds an outstanding pattern. An around 2" inch wide nutwood veneered frame on the outside, adorned by additional inlayed maple thread builds the perfect contrast. The highlight of this remarkable Biedermeier table is the inlay work in the center: an ebonized round field with a lovely floral design and the German words taken from the Lord´s Prayer: "unser tegliches Brot gib uns heute" - meaning: "give us this day our daily bread...
