A beautifully proportioned 19th-century Austrian chest of drawers, veneered with elm and professionally restored. The chest stands on refined tapered legs, giving it a light and timeless silhouette.
A delicate black line inlay runs beneath the top and frames the drawers, adding a clean and sophisticated outline. The chest retains its original black escutcheons and fully functioning locks, further enhancing its authenticity and historical value.
All drawers are immaculately clean and ready for use.
Condition and Restoration
The piece has undergone comprehensive restoration in a professional conservation workshop:
– the structure was reinforced and stabilized,
– drawer runners were repaired or replaced where necessary,
– drawers now operate smoothly and effortlessly,
– missing veneer sections were carefully matched and restored,
– the surface was hand-finished with traditional shellac polish, achieving a warm, elegant satin sheen.
A fine example of Austrian 19th-century cabinetmaking — elegant, authentic, and perfectly suited for both classical and contemporary interiors.
