Description
A matched pair of mid-century Swedish oak ‘Monk’s’ chairs, with triangular seats, turned legs and stretchers, and a chip carved back rest. The design of these chairs is similar to the ‘Turners’ chairs we see in the UK, but the chip carved details give them a distinctly Scandinavian feel.
These decorative chairs are made from oak and are very solid. They make a great design feature, in a hallway or either side of a fireplace maybe, but are fully useable and are actually very comfortable to sit in. We believe they date from the 1950’s, and are a perfect pair in terms of both design and colour.

declaration
Antique and Unique has clarified that the Pair of Vintage Swedish Monk Chairs (LA591919) is genuinely of the period declared with the date/period of manufacture being c1950
condition
Both chairs have some minor surface wear, but nothing of note - please see the photos. One chair has a slightly rough edge to one of the arm rests where it joins the leg - this may be a result of damage in the past, but I’m not sure. They are both good and solid with no wobbles.
