Its design resembles a miniature version of a large chest of drawers, making it a unique and decorative piece. The box is made from spruce wood, veneered with plum wood, and finished with a shellac polish. It is in very well-preserved condition and has been professionally cleaned to enhance its natural beauty and elegance. It has been re-polished with polyutherane piano lacquer by our professional refurbishing team in Czechia according to the original process. This item features classic Biedermeier elements. Visual simplicity, light-colored woods, and contrasting inlays characterize this style. Relaxed sophistication is the name of the game. Despite original Biedermeier pieces being over 200 years old, the furniture of the movement still feels fresh and modern. See less
