A pair of Swedish neoclassical style painted wood benches from the mid-19th century, with upholstered seats. Born in Sweden during the 1840s, each of this exquisite pair of painted benches features a square seat, newly reupholstered with a double welt fabric. The apron is carved with low-relief motifs, while the ensemble is raised on four turned legs with single fluting accents. The benches are painted in a soft color typical of the Scandinavian taste for light palettes aiming at brightening the homes during the long winters. With their elegant lines and subtle décor, these Swedish neoclassical style painted benches circa 1840 will bring a graceful touch to any living room or bedroom.
