We begin with the classic Biedermeier Table shape: ample round dining tables, perfectly suited for a classy dining room or lunch foyer. In these tables, do especially note the feet: some have more than others, and oftentimes, artisans expressed themselves most clearly in table legs.

This Oval Console Table is a breathtaking piece of Biedermeier design, featuring a plethora of unique qualities. Two ebonized columns carry the unusual oval tabletop with distinctive grace. But the most striking aspect of this piece may be the footboard itself, decorated with unusual, ebonized features that seem to jut out of the light wood, like modernist abstractions.

When faced with a piece like this, it’s easy to think of it as more than a Biedermeier table. After all, it feels almost contemporary in its bold use of shape, color, and material.

With a prescience notable for the period, the maker of this particular console seems to emulate the favorite traits of Art Deco artists of about a century later. Particularly the contrast between ebonized features and light wood (in conjunction with the tall, jutting geometry of the piece) makes this seem like a piece pulled out of time.

But rest assured, it’s a completely unique original. You’ll be hard-pressed to find another one like it elsewhere.

The gorgeous tone of walnut is an especially rich one, a favorite of 19th-century German artisans. Note the connection to the previous piece in the ebonized features adorning the feet.
