[QUOTE="User 67, post: 710, member: 67"][FONT=Verdana]Yes I have always loved Beidermeier, it was huge in the 1980s, when I was collecting American country Empire, which sometimes has similar lines. My understanding of the 'arrangement' shown above is that it was created during the Beidermeier period. I am talking about the sofa, with a high round table, and chairs at the sides. This arrangement developed into what we have today: couch, two side tables, a low table (coffee table) and two chairs. However, the way the photo above shows it, it looks like the table my grandma pulled out to play pinochle. I don't think that is representive of the [I]Beidermeier Arrangement[/I] and may have been placed that way to show off the matching set of chairs and sofa.[/FONT][/QUOTE]
