GUSTAVIAN STYLE

With clean lines and muted colors, antique Gustavian furniture is understated and elegant. It represents a more restrained version of the transition from Rococo to neoclassicism that was happening in France under Louis XVI. The style developed under Swedish King Gustav III, who reigned from 1771 until his assassination in 1792, and his son Gustav IV, who ruled until 1809. Although Gustavian furniture is mostly used to refer to pale painted cabinets, commodes, armchairs and other items, it involved a range of influences.

Gustavian-style furniture was inspired by discoveries at Pompeii and Herculaneum as well as the grandeur of European palaces like Versailles, with local softwoods such as pine and birch. There was also an emphasis on natural light; crystal chandeliers and large mirrors played a role in radiating the fleeting daylight of winter, giving it a distinctive aesthetic.

Where earlier furniture was curvy and florid, this new era was more architectural, with tapered and fluted legs and rectangular and oval shapes. Luminous gilt contrasted with the palette of soft blues on upholstery and painted surfaces. Leading furniture builders included Gottlieb Iwersson, Louis Masreliez and Erik Öhrmark. The latter, a French-born Swedish decorator, designed the Sulla chair, a seat that was demonstrative of technical skill and precise craftsmanship and drew on Greek klismos chairs. Masreliez’s Sulla chair was made by Öhrmark and featured decorative ornamentation produced by Jean-Baptiste Masreliez, Louis’s younger brother.

While the wealthy had furniture carved with neoclassical details like scallops and rosettes, more affordable options were adorned with faux finishes that mimicked marble and stenciled patterns. The simple elegance of Gustavian furniture would have a long impact on Swedish design, informing the 20th-century appreciation for function and form. In the 1950s, IKEA mass-produced copies of a Gustavian commode designed by cabinetmaker Georg Haupt, who created pieces for the Royal Palace, making the furniture a fixture of everyday Swedish life.

$2,950

Swedish Gustavian Style Painted Tub Chair with Carved Campanula Friezes

Located in Atlanta, GA

This Swedish Gustavian-style painted wood tub chair dates to the late 19th century and showcases curving lines, carved campanula friezes, and waterleaf motifs. Crafted in Sweden during the final decade of the 1800s, the chair features Neoclassical elegance with delicately carved details. Its curving back and rectangular seat are designed for reupholstery, while the apron is adorned with a delicate campanula frieze running on three sides. The chair is raised on two cylindrical, tapering front legs carved with waterleaves, paired with two saber legs in the back. Accented with carved rosettes on the knees, the piece is painted in a soft, muted color typical of Swedish taste—light palettes that brighten rooms during the region’s dark winters. The Gustavian style draws inspiration from the Louis XVI era. In 1771, Swedish King Gustav III visited Paris during the early stages of the Louis XVI movement and was captivated by French art and fashion. Upon returning to Sweden, he sought to introduce a similar aesthetic, leveraging the country’s skilled craftsmen to create a refined, harmonious style. The result was the Gustavian style, which remains beloved for its elegance and simplicity—especially in England, France, and the USA. With its graceful lines and intricate carvings, this Gustavian tub chair...
