Projects
Wood | Round Biedermeier Table from the Stiftung Stadtmuseum Berlin
The table with a round tabletop was probably made during the Biedermeier period and, in addition to classical features of the era, also shows Gothic influences.
Wood | The Panorama of the Town of Schillingsfürst in Straw Marquetry
The straw marketer's picture shows a view of the town of Schillingsfürst on the Franconian Heights in the 19th century. The special technique involves assembling coloured pieces of straw into a scenic representation.
Wood | Restoration of a Piece of Biedermeier Furniture from a Private Collection
The object to be restored is a chest of drawers whose exact origin is unknown. It was probably produced in northern Germany. Stylistically, the furniture can be assigned to the Biedermeier period.
Web Based Trainings
As part of the Arbeitsschutz Digital project, digital self-learning courses with explanatory videos on working with typical machines in the wood workshop were created.
