About the Item

This elegant mid-19th century Biedermeier wingback chair is a fine example of the restrained yet sophisticated style that defined the period. Crafted in fruitwood, the frame highlights the natural beauty of the wood grain, enhanced by clean lines and modest ornamentation characteristic of Biedermeier design. The tall, upright back with gently scrolled wings reflects both comfort and refinement. The chair is upholstered in a striped fabric in warm tones of peach, ivory, and beige, offering a pleasing contrast to the fruitwood frame. The rolled arms and straight legs add to the piece’s quiet dignity, while the generous seat and supportive back provide comfort as well as decorative appeal. Its timeless silhouette blends seamlessly with both traditional and contemporary interiors. This chair carries provenance from the Collection of Barbara Rothschild Michaels and Roger Michaels of New York City and Ossining, New York, with many items in the family descending from the Estate of Herbert and Nannette Rothschild. It remains in nice antique condition, consistent with age and normal use, showing minor wear and fading to the upholstery, though it remains fully serviceable. A distinctive and versatile piece, it embodies the charm and grace of Biedermeier furniture, appealing to collectors and decorators alike. 42h x 33w x 31d seat height 16
