Item description
Four Danish wooden chairs with fabric seats. Each chair has a refined and elegant design and the structure is solid and functional. The most interesting part of the chair is the elaborate and imaginative backrest with a harmonious and sophisticated design. In the center is a wooden work, designed and modeled with skill and expertise by a master cabinetmaker. The front legs have been meticulously turned giving them a light and proportionate shape, while the rear legs have a slightly curved square section. The seat cover has been replaced previously and is in good condition; it is a graceful and at the same time robust and durable wool-silk blend fabric. On each chair in the front band, under the seat, the master cabinetmaker has performed, with the inlay technique (or marquetry), fine decorations with varieties of exotic woods of different colors from walnut which create an exceptional whole and a fantastic color effect . By inserting this process, the master craftsman obtained a further addition of refinement and sophistication on the chairs. The chairs were handcrafted in Denmark between 1850 and 1860 during the reign of Frederick VII in perfect Biedermeier style using fine walnut wood. The Biedermeier style which spread especially in Austria and Germany between 1820 and 1850 characterized furniture and furnishings that were simplified in response to the typical majesty of the Empire style. The Biedermeier style, which emerged after the Congress of Vienna and the decline of the Napoleonic Empire, was primarily aimed at the bourgeoisie who wanted simple, functional furniture. The Biedermeier artistic movement aims to enhance sobriety and harmony, modifying some stylistic motifs of the previous period, but stripping them of all the ornaments, frills and excesses that had characterized it. In this sober and harmonious chair, the combination of curved and straight lines is expertly emphasized in an interesting play of volumes and geometries, giving the object a timeless elegance, capable of characterizing every room in the house. The seat upholstery has, as already mentioned, been replaced and the original wooden part is in good condition, so we have not considered carrying out any restoration on the chairs because their authentic appearance and slight imperfections make them truly seductive and fascinating and attest to its antiquity. Width 42 cm, depth 40 cm, height 84 cm, seat 46 cm. We use special packaging materials (wooden cages, polystyrene, etc.) for maximum protection and safety of the objects.
