About this piece
Late 1800s Swiss Brienz parlour suite in inlaid walnut, comprising an occasional table and a pair of chairs. The ensemble is richly decorated with alpine motifs depicting shepherds, goats, and floral designs.
Notable detail: the seats feature hinges on the back, possibly concealing secret or musical compartments.
Contextual notes:
- The term “parlour” derives from the French “parler” (to speak). In the 18th and 19th centuries, the parlour room signified elevated social status.
- Brienz, a Swiss village often referred to as the “village of carving,” is known for its longstanding woodworking tradition.
Dimensions: 75 cm H x 65 cm W x 47 cm D (chairs)
Condition:
- Some losses and imperfections.
- Fine crack to the tabletop, as shown.
- Wear consistent with age and use; the set has been conditioned and is in usable order.
