Item description

Lot of 6 chairs from the Biedermeier period, made in Emilia, dating back to the 1920s-30s. Of the 6 chairs, 2 are restored and in perfect condition, while the other 4 require some restoration work as can be seen from the photos. The chairs are made of walnut wood, the backrest is adorned with carved shell decorations and acanthus leaves. The impact of the Biedermeier style, in vogue mainly among the German and Austrian bourgeoisie, in Emilia, then a territory governed by the Este family, is due to the Habsburgs of Este. A cadet branch of the Austrian House of Habsburg, created in 1771 with the marriage between Ferdinand Carlo Antonio D'Asburgo and Maria Beatrice d'Este and extinct in 1875 with the death of Francesco V, Duke of Modena and Reggio. The chairs on sale are very particular and fully represent the Austrian bourgeoisie of the time, its search to return to a more normal and carefree life as opposed to the Empire style and after the upheavals of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars. The Biedermeier style was immediately defined, in a derogatory manner, as "Simpleton" by the European nobles of the early 19th century. The name in fact derives from the combination of the term "Bieder" which means "simple" and one of the most widespread German surnames: Meier. But, despite the criticisms, the style spread rapidly and managed to fascinate all the European bourgeoisies. A style that still today breaks the mold, whose furnishings are difficult to find at auctions and antique markets, capable of giving the environment in which it resides a solemn but at the same time sober and comfortable air.
