About the Item

A set of 10 similar Rococo chairs made in Stockholm, about 1770. The chairs are made in alder, that is a very light wood. In Stockholm they made chairs that are very similar and in the best quality. The high quality in the furniture´s from this period is depended on that the Stockholm castle were ready to be furnished. Swedish chair makers learned from cabinet maker in England and France. The word Rococo is derived from the French word rocaille, which denoted the shell-covered rock work. In the Rococo style, walls, ceilings, and moldings were decorated with delicate interlacings of curves and countercurves based on the fundamental shapes of the “C” and the “S,” as well as with shell forms and other natural shapes. Asymmetrical design was the rule. Light pastels, ivory white, and gold were the predominant colours, and Rococo decorators frequently used mirrors to enhance the sense of open space.
