About the Item

This exceptional Viennese Biedermeier sofa, created circa 1825, represents the very finest achievements of early 19th-century Austrian design. Viennese Biedermeier furniture is celebrated for its perfect proportions, refined elegance, and masterful craftsmanship—qualities that continue to influence modern design today. This early sofa is a rare and sophisticated example, distinguished by its timeless silhouette and museum-quality execution. Crafted from solid walnut and walnut veneer, the sofa displays a rich, deep amber tone enhanced by nearly 200 years of beautifully developed patina. The warm walnut wood is complemented by upholstery that emphasizes the natural grain and finely carved details, creating a harmonious and elegant presence. Beyond its striking appearance, this sofa is remarkably comfortable and sits extremely well, reflecting the Biedermeier philosophy of combining beauty with everyday functionality. The piece is in excellent condition and has been professionally restored in our Viennese workshop using original, historically accurate conservation methods. Every aspect of the restoration was carried out with the utmost respect for the original materials and craftsmanship, preserving the authenticity and integrity of this exceptional antique. With its museum-level quality, refined design, and outstanding comfort, this sofa is a perfect complement to both classic and contemporary interiors. True Biedermeier design transcends trends—it is simply timeless. We offer worldwide air shipment to the USA at a discounted rate of $1,700, including full insurance.
