Walnut
Neorenaissance around 1890
Dimensions: H x W x D: 105 x 46 x 45 cm, seat height variable from H 46 - 58 cm
Description:
Very unusual piano chair, which is extremely rare to find in this form.
The baluster legs at the front are an absolutely typical design feature of the German Wilhelminian period (Neorenaissance). The construction is maximally stable by means of an H-bracing between the legs.
The rectangular backrest has an elaborate crown with scroll-like volutes.
A striking feature is the column centrally located above the footrests, which houses the height adjustment mechanism.
A small lever on the right side of the seat releases the lock. The seat can now be moved up and down and locked in ten height positions. Beautiful and so lovingly made are the scales on the left and right under the backrest, by means of which the current position can be read.
The mechanism is marked in a circle of the sun:
D.R. Patent No 45215. (D.R. - Deutsches Reich).
A unique piece of furniture and an absolute enrichment for any living room with a Gründerzeit piano.
Condition:
Refurbished and in everyday condition. The surface has been cleaned and oiled. The former wickerwork was upholstered over in an earlier restoration. The upholstery fabric used at that time was replaced by a horsehair cover.
Price: 2200,- €
