Painted in layered, time-worn color, this pair of late 18th-century Swedish folk art hall chairs has decorative back splats with traditional folk motifs. The curved seats lift on hinges to reveal hidden storage, a practical and charming detail. Handmade and full of character, they're pure provincial Scandinavian design.

Dimensions: 17.75" W x 35" H x 11.5" D (each)

Styling Tip with Kristin: I love these on either side of an entry table, where the hidden storage can hold gloves and dog leashes. They also look wonderful flanking a fireplace.
