Swedish Rococo
Swedish Rococo is an artistic style that emerged in Sweden during the 18th century, characterized by its ornate and playful designs. It is known for its use of light colors, asymmetrical shapes, and intricate details, often seen in furniture, textiles, and interior decoration. This style reflects the broader European Rococo movement but incorporates unique Swedish elements, such as local materials and craftsmanship.
The movement was influenced by the French Rococo style, which emphasized elegance and charm. Notable examples of Swedish Rococo can be found in the works of furniture makers like Carl Malmsten and in the interiors of palaces such as Drottningholm Palace.
