Antique Austrian Arts And Crafts Wardrobe



This unique piece is an exquisite example of the arts and crafts movement of the late 19th century. This movement was in response to the industrial revolution, several freethinking craftsmen held a vision of a society in which the worker was not brutalized by the working conditions found in factories, but rather could take pride in his craftsmanship and skill. The rise of a consumer class coincided with the rise of manufactured consumer goods. In this period, manufactured goods were often poor in design and quality. These craftsmen proposed that it would be better for all if individual craftsmanship could be revived-- the worker could then produce beautiful objects that exhibited the result of fine craftsmanship, as opposed to the shoddy products of mass production. The straight lines and rectangular shape of these pieces typify this style. You will love this awesome piece. Made from pitch pine, this piece is beautiful. One large full-length hanging compartment on the left side is perfect for storage of clothing. A small cupboard and six drawers offer ample storage space, while a unique shelf would be perfect for displaying bottles or small items. The craftsmanship of this piece is excellent and should not be overlooked. *Please note: the keys on this piece are decorative and are used as pulls not locks.
