About the Item
An elegant Swedish Rococo sofa from the 18th century, crafted around 1750. This refined piece features a beautifully carved wooden frame with delicate Rococo motifs, showcasing the lightness and flowing curves characteristic of Swedish interpretations of the style. The sofa rests on cabriole legs and displays a harmonious balance of ornamentation and restraint, hallmarks of Scandinavian Rococo design, which was often more subdued than its French counterpart.
The proportions and craftsmanship reflect the sophisticated taste of mid-18th century Sweden, where Rococo furniture was widely appreciated in aristocratic and bourgeois interiors. With its graceful lines and historical character, this sofa is both a collector’s item and a statement piece for interiors that appreciate Scandinavian design heritage.
This sofa will fit into many interior styles. A Modern, Scandinavian, Classic, Antique or an Art Deco home decor.
