Rococo Sideboards

ROCOCO STYLE

Rococo was an aesthetic movement in the fine and decorative arts in the 18th century that found its inspiration in nature and fostered an overall lightness and delicacy of form, construction and ornament in interior design. Rococo furniture, while greatly influenced by trends in Italy and Germany, is often called Louis XV style — the movement having reached its best expression during that sybaritic French king’s reign.

The term “rococo” is thought to be a portmanteau of the French words rocaille and coquilles — “rock” and “shells” — organic motifs frequently used in architecture and design of the style.

When it comes to authentic Rococo furniture's characteristics, it is above all sensuous and social. The furniture of earlier eras in Europe had been heavy in every sense; the Rococo period saw the appearance of light-framed upholstered armchairs, side chairs and occasional tables that could easily be moved to form conversational circles.

The signal detail of Rococo furniture design is the gently curved cabriole, or S-shaped chair-, table-, and cabinet-leg. It imitates the bend of a tree limb or a flower stem. In a further reference to nature, furnishings were often asymmetrical and painted white, or in soft, pastel shades. Rococo has become a timeless style, and as the furniture pieces presented on 1stDibs demonstrate, its playful, sculptural forms can provide visual excitement to contemporary, clean-lined spaces.

Large 1950s Elm and Birch Swedish Sideboard Credenza with Keys
Located in Leicester, GB
A beautiful 1950s Art Deco sideboard by Carlsson & Reicke, Stockholm. This sideboard has three tall doors in a beautiful honey coloured, book matched elm wood. The interior is a lovely contrasting pale birch wood with two shelved areas to the left and shelves with three drawers above to the right. The drawers are in great condition with a beautiful flickering grain across the fronts. Simple tapered legs. 3 simple silver keys with bakelite key holes. There are a few marks throughout and a small dent on top and one in the right door, but nothing that detracts from the piece. The middle lock is slightly temperamental, it could be left unlocked as the door stays shut nicely. A great Swedish midcentury sideboard.
