Rococo Chair in Painted Wood from Denmark Around the Year, 1740

Located in Lejre, DK

The Rococo chair in painted wood from Denmark, dating back to around the year 1740, is a beautiful example of furniture from the Rococo period. Rococo was an ornate and decorative style that emerged in the 18th century, characterized by its curvaceous forms, intricate detailing, and emphasis on asymmetry. Here are the measurements for the chair: Height (H): 105.5 cm Width (W): 68 cm Depth (D): 45 cm Seat Height (SH): 44 cm The chair's height of 105.5 cm indicates it is a tall backrest chair, common for formal seating during the Rococo era. The width of 68 cm and depth of 45 cm provide a comfortable seating area for the user. The seat height of 44 cm allows for easy seating and is in line with typical chair dimensions from that period. The use of painted wood was a common practice during the Rococo period, with furniture often adorned with delicate floral motifs, scrolled carvings, and gilded accents. The chair's painted wood would have likely featured intricate designs and decorative elements, reflecting the opulence and elegance of the Rococo style. Chairs from this era were often crafted with great attention to detail and were considered a status symbol, reflecting the owner's wealth and taste. Today, antique Rococo chairs...
