Set of Ten 18th Century Swedish Rococo Dining Chairs

This is a married set of ten 18th Century Swedish Rococo Dining Chairs, assembled from a group of six and a group of four. It is notably rare to find a cohesive set of ten Swedish Rococo chairs from this period on the market. The frames are constructed with cabriole front legs, turned H-form stretchers, and contoured backrests with a pierced upper splat. Six of the chairs feature carved detailing along the sides of the backrest. The chairs are fitted with drop-in seats currently upholstered in a green fabric.
