About the Item
Portrait Medallion of the Swedish king Karl XIV Johan, Empire, c. 1820s
A beautiful portrait medallion in polished and dark-patinated bronze depicting King Karl XIV Johan of Sweden (1763–1844), who reigned as King of Sweden and Norway from 1818 until his death in 1844. Finely detailed in classic profile, executed in the Empire aesthetic typical of the early 19th century.
The medallion is mounted in an elegant, ebonized birch frame with a hanging ring. The combination of the warm bronze patina and the dark wood creates a striking and refined appearance — a decorative object with strong historical resonance.
A characterful piece from 1820s Sweden, perfect for collectors of royal memorabilia or Empire-era decor.
