19th Century Rococo Cabinet

About the Item

A rococo cabinet made in Sweden, probably made in Stockholm, about 1770. The secondary color has been removed and left the originally color with indigenous textures. The word Rococo is derived from the French word rocaille, which denoted the shell-covered rock work. The 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.
