Made in Lindome, Sweden, around 1800, this matched set of eight Gustavian chairs has been repainted in soft grey and newly upholstered. Lindome was a noted Swedish furniture-producing region, and the set is assembled as a matched group of eight. The Gustavian style, the Swedish interpretation of neoclassicism, is expressed in the restrained lines and balanced proportions of the chairs, while the soft grey repaint gives them the muted palette valued in Swedish furniture. The fresh upholstery leaves the chairs ready for use. As a matched set of eight, they suit a dining table seating eight, where a complete set is increasingly difficult to assemble. Suited to both period and plainer modern dining rooms, the chairs combine practical seating with strong period character. As a set of eight Gustavian Lindome chairs in soft grey, they offer a complete dining group with the calm, restrained character of Swedish furniture.
