Pair of Swedish Art Nouveau Chairs in Oak, circa 1910-1920
Crafted in Sweden around 1910, this charming pair represents the very essence of Scandinavian Art Nouveau at its peak. The elegant, flowing lines, the finely carved natural motifs and the heart-shaped cut-outs on the backrests celebrate the movement’s devotion to organic forms and true craftsmanship.
Made of solid oak, the chairs remain structurally sound and stable, with a partially restored finish that preserves their authentic character and beautiful patina. The warm-toned wood and richly patterned upholstery create a refined, yet inviting presence that complements both period interiors and contemporary spaces.
More than 110 years old, these chairs carry the subtle poetry of time: once part of a Nordic home’s everyday rituals, they are now ready to bring history and personality to a new environment. Their decorative expressiveness makes them particularly appealing to collectors of early 20th-century decorative arts, as well as interior designers seeking original, characterful pieces.
