Austrian Antique Pine Girls' Wardrobe with Carving & Wiener Provenance (Vienna II) – ca. 1890-1910 Atmospheric antique two-door girls' wardrobe / wardrobe made from solid pine wood, dating from the end of the 19th / early 20th century (ca. 1890–1910). This piece stands out for its distinctive and documentable provenance: on the back there is an original handwritten inscription: "Helga Seifert, Wien II (27), Stuwerstrasse 27 / 9" This marking refers to a historic apartment on Stuwerstraße in Leopoldstadt (the 2nd district of Vienna, near the Prater). The designation Wien II / 27 derives from the era of the old Viennese postal zones before the introduction of modern postcodes. It is an authentic moving or transport address that proves the cabinet has a rich history in Imperial Vienna. Notable features: Decorated doors: The doors feature graceful oval openings with detailed rosette woodcarving and original silver/mirror foil glass on the inside. Layout: The interior space is equipped with a top shelf and a wooden clothes rod. At the bottom there is a roomy drawer with authentic copper fittings. Craftsmanship: The corners of the top panel and the drawer construction show classic hand-made dovetail joints. Construction & Quality: Solid through and through: The cabinet is a single, fixed unit and cannot be taken apart. This makes the cabinet exceptionally sturdy, stable, and warp-resistant. Wood type: Solid pine with a beautiful, light patina. Weight: ca. 60 kg. Lock & Key: The original copper fittings and the decorative key with a pink porcelain knob and tassel are present. The key is not original; when turned, the movable part engages and can be used. A locksmith can conveniently craft a matching key blade on request. Use & Versatility: A striking centerpiece that looks lovely in a warm or in a bright, minimalist bedroom. By adding a few extra shelves, the piece is also highly suitable as a characterful china cabinet or display cabinet in a dining room or kitchen. Specifications & Dimensions: Type of furniture: Two-door cabinet with rod and drawer Origin / Provenance: Austria (Vienna, Leopoldstadt – signed "Helga Seifert, Wien") Period: Ca. 1890 – 1910 Style: Austrian Folk Art / Country / Gründerzeit Material: Solid pine, glass, copper fittings Total height: 195 cm Total width: 127 cm Total depth: 54 cm Internal depth: 44.5 cm Weight: Ca. 60 kg Condition: Good antique condition with nice patina and light signs of use consistent with age. Packaging & Shipping: Professional protection: To optimally protect the weight and the vulnerability of the authentic glass-front cabinet, the cabinet is carefully wrapped in a thick layer of bubble wrap, foam, and protective cardboard. The whole piece is securely strapped to a wooden pallet. Insured transport: Shipping is via professional pallet transport and fully insured. Delivery to the door (ground floor): The driver delivers the pallet at the front door on the ground floor. Important on receipt: Please note that the driver will not carry the furniture inside or upstairs. So please arrange some help to safely move the cabinet indoors after delivery. Pickup: Pickup is of course possible by arrangement. ps " The first and last photo were created with the help of AI to create atmosphere"
