Additional Information
Style: Biedermeier (1815-1848)
The Biedermeier style is a style that characterizes German and Austrian furniture between approximately 1815 (Congress of Vienna) and 1848 (beginning of the revolutionary movements).Its main characteristics are essentiality and functionality, and the home destination.
Biedermeier first took on a derogatory connotation: the word derives from “Bieder”, or “simpleton” and from “Meir”, one of the most common German surnames at the time and was the name of a “simpleton” character in a comedy by Ludwig Eichrodt.
This term was intended to indicate the conservative petty bourgeois, concerned only with his own family reality.
Although in a derogatory way, the term represents exactly the new socio-political situation in which the bourgeois is forced or resigned to give up the yearnings for democracy and freedom.
The center of life becomes, therefore, the house, no longer characterized by unbridled luxury but, comfortable and practical.
Consequently, Biedermeier furniture is functional, comfortable and easily made products.
The style is an evolution of the Empire style towards greater simplification, without ornamental and antique elements, lighter, linear and curved shapes, lighter colors.
