Swedish 19th Century Biedermeier Chaise
$4,800.0035.50"H x 73"W x 26.25"D
Dimensions: 35 ½” H x 73” W x 26 ¼”” D
An expressive Biedermeier period chaise lounge–also called a “recamier”–dating to circa 1820 Sweden, in the manner of the famous maker Karl Johan. Resembling a gondola in silhouette, the left-arm rises from the corner to develop into an exaggerated wave with spiral (very much in the French Restauration taste for scrolled arms) before cresting again to make the lower arm on the right side. Maple wood, by its natural luminosity and elusive grain patterns, was an ideal choice in constructing the frame to underscore the sense of movement happening throughout. Currently the upholstery is a medium blue geometric jacquard that is in fair condition. Note there have been a few professional repairs made to stabilize the outer lobes of both arms but overall the frame is heavy and sturdy. Below the diamond-carved panels at the lower corners of the bench, robust turned feet elevate the frame as the final complement to the mastery in carving seen above.

Dimensions: 30 ½” H x 70” W x 31” D
Fans of the pioneering furniture designer Emile-Jacque Ruhlmann will delight in this glamorous French Art Deco period chaise. A swooping crest of a seat back rises from the left side to form the right-facing arm, over a single bench cushion outlined by the walnut frame. More elegant than a fainting couch, the effect is a sculptural statement to use as a daybed or chaise longue in a bedroom or living space, becoming one’s favorite place to lounge and relax. Currently the chaise is upholstered with a nailhead trim around tan faux suede of fair condition although the internal cushioning remains firm and comfortable. Subtle carvings in the gently tapered feet indicate every aspect of the design is an opportunity to convey a sense of luxury and good taste.
