A dainty, free-standing étagère, featuring an elegantly recessed top drawer.

Designed and executed by the esteemed Joseph Ulrich Danhauser, Vienna, circa 1825/30.

Masterfully crafted from solid cherry-colored ash wood and exquisitely veneered on an oak body. The piece is accented with mahogany thread inlays.

Cf. design drawings by Danhauser for comparable étagères: KI 8972-1375 and “Servante No. 45”, KI 8972-1401, Museum of Applied Arts (MAK), Vienna.
