Swedish Biedermeier Style Pair of Carved Birch Armchairs
$2,500.0033.75"H x 22.88"W x 22.50"D
Dimensions: 33 ¾” H x 22 ⅞” W x 22 ½” D
A unique pair of Swedish late 19th century/early 20th century carved birch armchairs, the style would best be described as Biedermeier hence the beautiful blonde wood frames with Neoclassical profile and saber legs that would fit with nearly all traditional to contemporary decorating styles. The upper handrails are carved with a highly technical twisted effect flanked by turned rings as the only decorative flourish on the otherwise restrained yet elegant design. Currently the seats are upholstered in a very worn, satin material of alternating stripes in sage-green and ivory which complements the luminous frame. At 18” seat height they easily adapt for dining or as occasional chairs in a living room setting. Please view the detailed images to see more. Sold as a pair only.

Swedish Biedermeier 19th Century Birch Armchairs
$3,200.0032.25"H x 21.63"W x 19.63"D
Dimensions: 32 ¼” H x 21 ⅝” W x 19 ⅝” D
A pair of Swedish Biedermeier armchairs from circa 1820 in birch that expresses the most extraordinary patterns (which occur naturally in the wood) but have been revealed by the skilled hand of the artisan. The rather square and restrained profile of the chairs is contrasted by the lyre represented on the splat, which incorporates thin metal rods as the “strings” for the instrument. Seats are currently upholstered in a heavyweight twill material of complementary faded brick tone that is in worn condition but acceptable to continue using. They are a natural seat height for dining, and generous in scale to incorporate as occasional chairs for a living room setting. Wood frames have been gently cleaned and polished with a French paste wax to maintain the natural luster. Please view all the detailed images to see the current condition as they are an important part of the product description. Sold as a pair only.

$2,995.0034.50"H x 19"W x 18"D
Dimensions: 34 ½” H x 19” W x 18” D
A fabulous set of carved oak Biedermeier-style chairs from Sweden, early 19th century, with soft cut-velvet seats to enhance the sense of refinement the period is known for. The curvaceous pierced back splat exhibits an openwork (stylized) palmette design below a thick upper rail carved with a diamond shape that is emphasized by natural darkening of the wood. The sage-green upholstery retains a luxurious and inviting touch (although a bit worn in places) both to the hand as well as when seated for dining and used around a game table. Internal structure remains firm and supportive. Note how the regal fleur-de-lis motif in the fabric has a rose-gold shimmer under certain lighting that looks celebratory for any occasion.

Dimensions: 33” H x 19 ½” W x 17 ½” D
A restrained pair of German Biedermeier side chairs of circa 1820 in that timeless combination of blonde wood and ebonized accents. The upper handrails have an architectural profile with a gentle curve and a line of ebonized pinstripe. A central splat, shaped to resemble a lyre, is topped with a panel of birds eye maple over three ebonized lines to suggest the strings of the musical instrument. Currently the seat upholstery is a plain black twill fabric that is worn but acceptable to continue using as the internal structure remains firm and comfortable. Joining the squared, tapered legs is a rather unusual crossed stretcher of thin strips that have been gracefully shaped.

Dimensions: 36 ¼” H x 23 ½” W x 21” D
Danish, early 20th century pair of Biedermeier armchairs made during the reign of Christian X (1912-1947). The chair frames are crafted from satin birch with natural luminosity like gold to shimmer in the light, revealing fine grain patterns. A carved backrest incorporates the familiar “shovel” design of early Viennese Biedermeier chairs in a gently arching shape ending in exaggerated lobes, finished on the underside by a half-circle fan including angular ridges of a stylized scallop shell. Resembling a fauteuil, the graceful arms of the chair project forward in a gentle slope before curling inward. The front legs rise above the seat and are crowned with ebonized spheres where they intersect with the arms. Current upholstery of a cream and sage green striped sateen material is in fair condition showing a few stains but would be acceptable to continue using. Note the wood has been gently cleaned and polished with a French paste wax to reveal its brilliance. Please view the detailed images to see more. Sold as a pair.

Dimensions: 34 ¾” H x 17 ½” W x 17 ½” D

Each backrest is ebonized around the edge for a dramatic contrast to the amber-gold tones of the frame. Evidence of spalting within some of the maple frames is another naturally occurring phenomenon that adds further visual interest to the ensemble. The seats appear to be more recently upholstered in a striped fabric of gold with tiny white dots, offering both comfort and another element of refinement. Note the cushions are removable, facilitating easy maintenance or future reupholstery. Sturdy chair bases feature clean-lined flat legs on the front and slightly sabered legs to the back.
