Fine Biedermeier Pair Of Walnut Nightstands. Vienna, c. 1825.

Fine Pair of Viennese Biedermeier Walnut Nightstands – Circa 1825

We are proud to offer an exceptionally rare and fine pair of original Viennese Biedermeier nightstands, crafted circa 1830 – a museum-worthy ensemble that exemplifies the artistic purity and timeless elegance of early 19th-century Austrian design.

Surviving as an original pair for nearly 200 years, these nightstands are a remarkable find on today’s market, where authentic Biedermeier bedside furniture – especially in pairs – has become exceedingly scarce. Their matched form and preserved symmetry make them not only functionally versatile but also profoundly decorative.

Executed in striking, bookmatched walnut veneer, each piece showcases the signature qualities of Viennese Biedermeier craftsmanship: elegant proportions, refined simplicity, and masterful joinery. The surfaces reveal richly figured walnut grain, elevated by a traditional amber-toned French polish, giving the wood a luminous, almost golden warmth. Subtle green and dark-brown undertones emerge in the veneer – a characteristic unique to aged walnut of this exceptional quality and vintage.

These nightstands offer both elegance and utility: each features a finely crafted drawer and lower cabinet with original interiors, ideal for sophisticated bedside storage or use as end tables in a sitting room or library. Their clean architectural lines and minimalist ornamentation make them an ideal accent in both classical and modern interiors.

Their rarity cannot be overstated: true pairs of Biedermeier nightstands are incredibly difficult to source, as most were separated or lost over the past two centuries. Acquiring a set in such beautifully preserved and matched condition represents a unique opportunity for collectors, designers, and connoisseurs of period furniture.

Offered in very good original condition, with a rich, historic patina and structurally sound bodies. Each piece has been carefully conserved in keeping with museum standards and is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity confirming its provenance, age, and value.

Whether placed on either side of a master bed, flanking a sofa, or used as compact chests in a refined interior, these nightstands are more than functional furniture – they are a statement of style, history, and artistic legacy.

We offer fully insured global air shipping at a discounted flat rate of $ 870 to ensure their safe and timely arrival anywhere in the world.
