About this piece

This Biedermeier vitrine cabinet in cherry veneer was made circa 1830. The pine carcass is fully veneered in carefully selected cherry, which shows a particularly expressive, flame-like figure on the sides.

The veneer of the single-door front is laid out symmetrically and shows the warm honey color of aged cherry. The door is divided into two parts: the upper section retains the original mouth-blown glass of the period, recognizable by its slight waviness, while the lower section is a closed veneered panel. Inside, two adjustable shelves in light pine provide sufficient space. A molded cornice at the top and a surrounding plinth on turned bun feet frame the clear Biedermeier silhouette, which largely does without ornament. The cabinet suits a study as a bookcase or a dining room for porcelain or silver.

The surface was hand-polished and shows the silky sheen typical of Biedermeier cherry. The original glass was preserved and secured.

Dimensions: H 166 x W 104 x D 49 cm (H 65.4 x W 40.9 x D 19.3 in)
