Description

A beautiful pair of antique Swedish armchairs in satin birch. They were recently imported from Sweden, and date from around the 1900-1920 period.

The quality is outstanding and they are well sprung, and very comfortable to relax in. They have a gorgeous design in the Chippendale style, with scrolled acanthus leaf armrests and claw and ball feet. The satin wood has a stunning colour, with wonderful light and dark silky grain patterns.

We have had the frames fully stripped and re-polished to a very high standard, and they have been re-upholstered in a cream cotton fabric. The condition is excellent throughout.

FAQs

These armchairs developed during the 18th and 19th centuries in Sweden, drawing inspiration from continental European neoclassical movements while incorporating local timber traditions.

Traditional pieces feature solid satin birch wood frames often enhanced with hand-carved details, joined using traditional mortise and tenon techniques, and traditionally stuffed upholstery.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit period-appropriate joinery, natural patination on the birch timber, hand-carved ornamentation, and traditional webbing and stuffing methods.

Pair them with minimalist contemporary furniture to create a balanced contrast, letting the warm tones of the birch wood and classic silhouette stand out as statement pieces.

Maintain the wood by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth, and occasionally applying appropriate natural wax polish.
