August Ungethüm Kunst Mobelfabrik, Wien, buffetschrank ( buffet cabinet ) from 1905 is among the finest examples of Vienna Secession movement furniture. A version of this sideboard model from the collection of the Austrian Museum of Applied Arts is featured in the Art Nouveau furniture book, "Möbel des Jugendstils: Sammlung des Österreichischen Museums für Angewandte Kunst" by Vera J. Behal ( see image ). The description in the book attributes this design to the architect August Ungethüm, Junior, based on comparisons with some published furniture designs by him as the company's co-owner. The August Ungethüm buffet was produced during the 1902 to 1906 period when the company was manufacturing dinner suites comprising the main sideboard, a smaller sideboard, a long-case clock, a dining table, and six chairs. A tin furniture label is attached at the top of the central cabinet frame interior. The label reads, "Kunst-Mobel-Fabrik August Ungethüm, Wien, V. Obere Amtshausgasse Nr. 27". This main buffet will suit interiors featuring design elements related to the Vienna Secession, Art Nouveau, École de Nancy, Jugendstil, and Arts & Crafts and will complement furniture designs by Otto Wyrtlik, Koloman Moser, and Joseph Maria Olbrich. SIZE: 85" wide x 30" deep x 87" high Buffet breaks down into three pieces for transport - the top, the base, and the marble top. Main Buffet is in stock in the USA and ready for pickup, shipment, and delivery.
