This pair of antique Swedish armchairs dates from the 1850 to 1870 period in the Swedish Empire style. Constructed from mahogany with a rich brown finish and flame grain patterns, they have newly upholstered cream fabric seats and frame re-polishing. Each chair incorporates a carved scroll crest rail, shaped splat back, swept arms, and finely turned front legs with ring and bulbous details. The dimensions are 94 cm high, 58 cm wide, and 56 cm deep, with a seat height of 49 cm. These armchairs suit placement as drawing room seating, desk chairs, or bedroom corner pieces in a period or transitional home interior. The wood displays a polished dark brown patina with visible timber figuring, complementing the neutral plain upholstery on the square drop-in seats. Their scale allows them to function around a library table, paired by a fireplace, or positioned individually against a hallway wall.

FAQs

Dust regularly with a dry lint-free cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish occasionally along the grain to protect the timber surface.

Position them flanking a console table, as carver chairs at the head of a dining table, or beside a fireplace to introduce warm timber tones to a modern room.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-cut joinery, original timber patination, carved scroll crestings, and dense, natural flame mahogany graining.

Craftsmen utilised solid mahogany timber along with rich flame mahogany veneers over pine frames, fitted with webbed upholstered seat pads.

Swedish Empire and Biedermeier seating typically feature fine flame mahogany veneers, architectural silhouettes, swept backrests, and delicate scrollwork developed during the nineteenth century.
