Ash
Biedermeier around 1830
Dimensions: H x W x D: 82 x 111 x 57 cm
Description:
Three-bay furniture corpus standing on ebonised plinth plates.
Very beautiful continuous ash veneer with a strong grain. The effect of the great wood grain is enhanced by the fact that there are no crossbars between the drawers.
The front of the top drawer can be folded down. The resulting open compartment serves as a writing surface. The surface is bordered on the outside by a gallery of blackened round bars. In the back we see four small drawers veneered in light burl wood.
The top is again veneered in mirrored ash.
Condition:
Restored condition, ready to live in. Shellac hand polish.
