Swedish Rococo Chair from Stockholm with Scraped Original Paint, Circa 1760

Offered by: Jacqueline Adams Antiques

Description
An authentic Swedish Rococo chair manufactured in Stockholm circa 1760. This period example retains its original painted surface, carefully scraped back to reveal the early finish with a softly aged patina, visible wear, and surface variation consistent with 18th-century use.

The chair features a gracefully shaped back with a sculptural splat, flowing seat rail, and cabriole legs, all hallmarks of Rococo design in Sweden during the mid-18th century. The proportions are elegant and well balanced, reflecting the high level of craftsmanship associated with Stockholm workshops of the period.

The seat has been newly upholstered in natural linen, offering a clean and restrained contrast to the historic surface while providing comfort for contemporary use. Structurally sound and visually refined, this chair works equally well as a standalone accent piece or incorporated into a period or curated interior with Scandinavian character and historical integrity.

Dimensions: 19.75"W × 19.5"D × 38.5"H Seat: 15.5"D x 17"H

This is an antique and having been around for a long time, it will show signs of wear. Antique pieces have very much sought-after character and associated flaws. Please review photos for condition & contact us with questions!
