Rare Austrian Biedermeier Coffeehouse Chess Set c 1830
1 300,00 € inc. tax
Made of boxwood, one side ebonized, the other natural. Chessmen like these made in the Biedermeier period (ca. 1815-1848) were the standard playing sets in Austrian coffeehouses for at least half a century before the more robust "Old Vienna" style came into fashion. They still show some typical features of the 18th century, but already contain elements of the emerging Biedermeier style.
