BEAUTIFUL PAIR OF 18TH CENTURY SWEDISH ROCOCO ARMCHAIRS. GENTLE CURVES, CABRIOLE LEGS WITH RESTRAINED ELEGANT HAND CARVED DETAILS. VERY GOOD SOLID CONDITION WITH WEAR CONSISTENT WITH AGE AND USE. DRY SCRAPED TO ORIGINAL PAINT WITH MINIMAL RETOUCHES AND MINOR HISTORICAL RESTORATION. DOWELLED JOINTS AND STRETCHER BASES.
SIMPLY STUNNING EARLY EXAMPLE OF SWEDISH ROCOCO ARMCHAIRS. PAINTSTAKINGLY HAND SCRAPED TO REMOVE LAYERS OF PAINT TO REVEAL A SUBTLE BLUE GREEN ORIGINIAL PATINA OF GREAT DEPTH AND BEAUTY. SEATS PROFESSIONALLY RESTORED, RETAINING THE ORGINAL WEBBING, UPHOLSTERED IN ANTIQUE FRENCH LINEN FABRIC.

THE WONDERFUL PATINATION ON THESE BEAUTIFUL CHAIRS IS WONDERFULLY TACTILE TO THE TOUCH AND ADDS A DEPTH OF CHARACTER SYNONYMOUS WITH RUSTIC CHARM. ALL MY PIECES OF A MORE “RUSTIC PAINTED” NATURE AND SUBTLE NEUTRAL COLOUR, PERFECTLY COMPLIMENT THE EASY RELAXED INTERIORS OF TODAY’S COUNTRY STYLE HOMES. I PERSONALLY LOVE THE WELL WORN, LIVED WITH, HONEST FUNCTIONALITY OF THESE PIECES AS WELL AS THE ELEGANT TRADITIONAL CHARM OF THE TYPE OF INTERIOR IN WHICH THEY ARE RENOWNED.
——————————-
“A SUBSTANTIAL, LOVELY PIECE OF FURNITURE PERFECTLY SUITED TO ANY RUSTIC SETTING, BE THAT A PERIOD COTTAGE, FARMHOUSE OR MORE MODERN MINIMALIST PROPERTY.”

VINTAGE AND ANTIQUE ITEMS VERY OFTEN SHOW SIGNS OF THEIR PREVIOUS LIFE WHICH MAY INCLUDE KNOCKS, LUMPS, BUMPS, SMALL GAPS, REPAIRS, HISTORIC WOODWORM HOLES (ALWAYS TREATED AS A PRECAUTION), CHIPS ETC THAT YOU WOULD EXPECT. THESE IN MY OPINION ONLY ADD TO THE CHARACTER AND AUTHENTICITY OF THE FURNITURE.
