About the Item

Swedish Gustavian Lindome armchairs, a matched set of four dating to circa 1800. Crafted in painted wood, each chair features a rectangular open back with slender vertical splats, a carved floral crest, geometric neoclassical borders and gracefully curved open arms terminating in carved scroll details. The chairs rest on tapered and fluted legs joined by traditional H-form stretchers. Their restrained ornament, balanced proportions and pale painted surfaces are characteristic of Late Gustavian furniture produced in the celebrated cabinetmaking region of Lindome, Sweden. Each chair has a removable upholstered seat covered in softly striped coral, blush and cream fabric. The aged painted finish displays attractive wear and patina developed over more than two centuries. This rare matched set can be used as dining armchairs, library chairs or occasional seating. The four chairs are being offered together as one set. Approximate measurements for each chair are 37.5 inches high, 24 inches wide and 23 inches deep, with an approximately 18-inch seat height and 18.5-inch interior seat depth. Please request confirmation of measurements if exact dimensions are required. The chairs remain in good antique condition with wear consistent with age and use. The painted surfaces show expected rubbing, losses, marks and variations. Evidence of historical restoration or reinforcement may be present, as is common with seating of this age.
