About the Item

A set of three late Gustavian open armchairs, late 18th century. This exceptional set of three late Gustavian open armchairs, dating from the late 18th century, exemplifies the graceful, neoclassical style that defined Swedish furniture design during the period. Characterized by their elegant simplicity and refined proportions, the chairs feature delicately carved wooden frames in a soft, pale finish—typically associated with the Gustavian aesthetic. The open arms and slender, fluted legs enhance the chairs' light, airy appearance, while the curved backrests offer both comfort and visual harmony. The softly contoured seat cushions, which are upholstered in a period-appropriate fabric, further emphasize the classic sophistication of the set. These armchairs are a testament to the late 18th century’s fusion of classical motifs with Swedish craftsmanship, making them a timeless addition to both period interiors and more contemporary settings. Each with a rectangular back with turned pillars, the fluted armrests terminating in a cymation frieze above tapering fluted legs.
