Biedermeier Inlaid Fruitwood, Satinwood & Yew Side Table with Ebonized Pedestal Side Table, Mid -19th Century
A refined 19th-century Biedermeier pedestal side table, masterfully constructed in fruitwood, satinwood, and yew, featuring a richly figured round top with radiating veneer and intricate inlay. The surface centers on an inlaid medallion depicting a stylized eight-pointed star or compass rose, rendered in alternating feather and petal motifs. The symbolism of this motif often reflects Enlightenment-era values of guidance, reason, and navigation—an aesthetic gesture toward both literal and philosophical direction. In 19th-century European decorative arts, such forms could allude to the cosmos, the passage of time, or the radiating sun, aligning with the period's interest in classical ideals and universal harmony.
The apron houses a discreet single drawer with a round brass pull, seamlessly integrated into the design. The ebonized column is accented with a carved and gilded lotus collar and rests on a sculptural tripod base with canted feet and matching fruitwood veneer. This elegant and well-proportioned form reflects the Biedermeier ethos of clarity, craftsmanship, and neoclassical restraint, making it a versatile and stylish accent piece.
