House Note · About this piece

Drottningholm, the royal palace on an island just outside Stockholm, still has its eighteenth-century court theatre, and it was in rooms like these that the Gustavian style took shape under King Gustav III: pale painted chairs, soft light and long evenings of music and conversation. This armchair is made for that kind of company. Its arms give you a place to settle in for a long talk, and its Gustavian lines bring a calm, light elegance to a room.

It stands 37 inches high, 22 wide and 27 deep, a generous depth that makes it a comfortable seat for a visit or a book. Gustavian pieces are known for their restraint, with straight, gentle lines and a quiet sense of order, which is why they sit as happily in a modern apartment as in an old country house.

Place it beside a fireplace with a small table and a lamp, pair two across from a sofa, or set one at a writing desk or in a bedroom corner. This listing is for one armchair.
