Swedish Polychrome Oak Kitchen Table – 18th Century

Sweden, 18th century

This authentic Swedish kitchen table dates from the 18th century and is crafted from solid oak. It retains its original polychromy, in subtle green-grey and patinated brown tones, revealed and softened by the passage of time. Designed for everyday use, this vernacular piece is emblematic of Scandinavian rural furniture, with its simple, robust construction and honest functionality.

The thick oak top bears visible traces of life and use, lending warmth and character to the piece. It contrasts beautifully with the painted base, creating a strong yet balanced visual presence. A central drawer enhances both the practicality and authenticity of the table.

The partially worn polychromy offers a genuine and vibrant patina, highly sought after by collectors and lovers of antique furniture with soul. With its restrained proportions and strong personality, this table will find its place naturally in a country kitchen, a rustic-chic dining room, or a contemporary interior seeking a distinctive Scandinavian antique.
