About the Item
A beautifully aged 19th-century Swedish Gustavian wooden sofa bench, showcasing the handcrafted character and rustic charm typical of rural furniture of the period. The frame is constructed from solid pine with turned spindle backrests and legs, all bearing a warm, timeworn patina that reflects decades of use. Hand-carved finials and initials “H.C.” enrich the bench with a sense of history and provenance.
The seat has been freshly upholstered in a classic red-and-white striped textile, a traditional pattern that pairs naturally with the Gustavian aesthetic. Long and elegantly proportioned, the bench offers both decorative presence and practical seating, making it ideal for hallways, kitchens, living spaces, or commercial interiors looking for a touch of authentic Scandinavian heritage.
