Swedish Circa 1900 Pair of Carved Birch Benches

Offered by: Fireside Antiques

Description
Dimensions: 24” H x 24 ¾” W x 13 ¾” D

Delightful pair of Swedish late 19th century/early 20th century carved birch benches with upholstered seats. The style would best be described as Biedermeier, hence the beautiful blonde wood frames with Neoclassical arms and saber legs that would fit with nearly all traditional to contemporary decorating styles. The upper rod of the arms are carved with a highly technical twisted effect like a handle, flanked by turned rings as the only decorative flourish on the otherwise restrained yet elegant design. Currently the seats are upholstered in a worn, satin material of alternating stripes in sage-green and ivory which complements the luminous frame. At 17” seat height they are easily adaptable as a vanity bench, footstools, and more. Please view the detailed images to see more. Sold as a pair only.

Seat height: 17”
