Early 20th Century, Freestanding "Karl Johan" Style Sofa, Swedish Modern
An elegant Swedish freestanding sofa dating from the early 20th century, executed in the Karl Johan style and distinguished by a finely crafted solid birch frame with gently curved lines and restrained neoclassical influence. The design reflects the Swedish interpretation of early Empire aesthetics, emphasizing balanced proportions and understated ornamentation.
The sofa has been reupholstered in a light cream linen fabric, offering a fresh and contemporary expression while respecting the original form and craftsmanship. The natural texture of the linen pairs beautifully with the warm tone of the birch veneer, creating a refined contrast between softness and structure.
Combining historic character with renewed comfort, this Swedish Karl Johan–style sofa is well suited to Scandinavian, Classic, Antique, Modern, Country House, and eclectic interiors. A timeless example of early 20th century Swedish furniture, thoughtfully updated for modern living.
