About the Item
Beautiful Swedish kubbestol likely originating from the Dalarna region of Sweden, known for its rich folk art traditions and distinctive woodcraft, carved from a single solid tree trunk, circa 1900-1920. This piece combines traditional Nordic folk craftsmanship with a modern sculptural presence.
The chair has a powerful, monolithic form with a beautifully curved backrest, giving it a strong yet elegant silhouette. The surface shows a lovely natural patina and grain, with signs of age and use that add character without compromising function.
Kubbestole like this were historically made in rural parts of Sweden and Norway, using local timber, and they remain icons of Scandinavian folk art. Today, their sculptural quality makes them sought after for both rustic and contemporary interiors — as statement chairs or functional art pieces.
