Early 19th Century Swedish Gustavian Painted Console Table

Offered by: Jacqueline Adams Antiques

Description
An elegant Swedish Gustavian console table from the first quarter of the 1800s, masterfully crafted in carved pine and finished in its original soft-toned paint. The timeworn surface reveals glimpses of raw wood beneath the pale cream and gray hues, creating a depth of character that only centuries of quiet aging can offer. The apron is delicately carved with a continuous guilloché frieze, a classic neoclassical motif symbolic of the Gustavian period’s restraint and refined ornamentation.

Fluted square legs, each capped with floral rosettes, provide both strength and symmetry. A straight stretcher base connects the legs, lending stability and a sculptural grounding to the piece. The pine wood construction is sturdy yet light in feel, a hallmark of early 19th-century Swedish design, which favored luminosity and simplicity over excess.

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!
