Description from the seller

Austrian Antique Pine Girls Wardrobe with Carving & Wiener Provenance (Vienna II) – ca. 1890-1910

Atmospheric antique two-door girls’ wardrobe / wardrobe made from blank, solid pine wood from the late 19th / early 20th century (ca. 1890–1910).

This piece distinguishes itself with a special and documentable history (provenance): on the back there is an original handwritten inscription:

"Helga Seifert, Wien II (27), Stuwerstrasse 27 / 9"


This marking points to a historic apartment in Stuwerstraße in Leopoldstadt (the 2nd district of Vienna, near the Prater). The designation Wien II / 27 dates from the era of the old Vienna post 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.

Striking 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 is equipped with an upper shelf and a wooden rod. At the bottom there is a spacious drawer with authentic copper fittings.

Craftsmanship: At the corners of the top board and the drawer construction you can see classic handmade dovetail joints.

Construction & Quality:
Old-school solid: 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: Approx. 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 taking-in bolt no longer engages. A locksmith can easily craft a matching key blank if desired.

Application & Versatility:
A striking focal point that looks wonderful in a warm or a light, minimalist bedroom. By adding a few extra shelves, the piece is also highly suitable as a characterful china cabinet or display cabinet in the 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

Packaging & Shipping:
Professional protection: To optimally protect the weight and vulnerability of the authentic glass-front cabinet, it is carefully wrapped in a thick layer of bubble wrap, foam, and protective cardboard. The whole piece is securely fixed to a wooden pallet.
Insured transport: Shipping takes place via professional pallet transport and is fully insured.
Delivery to the door (ground floor): The driver delivers the pallet to the front door on the ground floor.
Important at receipt: Please note that the driver will not carry the furniture inside or upstairs. Arrange for some help to safely move the cabinet indoors after delivery.
Pickup: Pickup is of course also possible by arrangement
