Large cherry Biedermeier chest

This large Kirschbaum (cherrywood) Kommode originates from central Germany around 1820. It is made of Kirschbaumholz veneered onto a softwood body, with three drawers featuring ebonized keyholes, and an ebonized edge on the top plate and the stamp feet.

Biedermeier refers to a style of design and culture that was popular in Central Europe, especially in Germany and Austria, from around 1815 to 1848. The term is derived from the name of a fictional character, Gottlieb Biedermeier, who appeared in a series of humorous poems and stories published in a Munich newspaper in the 1850s.

The Biedermeier style was characterized by simplicity, elegance, and a focus on the domestic sphere. Furniture and decorative objects were often made from natural materials such as wood and cherrywood.

Biedermeier Kommoden are distinguished by a simple, elegant aesthetic combined with fine details and clear design. The pieces are often designed with clean lines and simple forms and do not typically feature carving or ornamentation.

Overall, Biedermeier Kommoden have a timeless beauty and are still highly sought after by furniture enthusiasts and collectors today
