CUPBOARDS & ROSES Swedish Antiques

Informazioni Generali

Cupboards & Roses Antiques is known for its extensive collection of 18th and 19th century painted furniture from Scandinavia and Europe. Featured Scandinavian antiques include Gustavian chests of drawers (commodes), tables and chairs, Mora and Bornholmer clocks, and Swedish secretaries and writing desks.

Each piece of furniture at Cupboards & Roses Antiques has been scrutinized carefully by owner Edith Gilson. She has studied its construction, its painted surface, and its overall condition. “The details are important, of course,” she says. “But each of these pieces is unique, and it is when one speaks to me through its form and color and decoration that I buy it for the store.”

Pieces from Cupboards & Roses Antiques have been featured in Architectural Digest, Elle Décor, House Beautiful, Country Living, Florida Design, The New York Times, and Better Homes and Gardens. Arthur Dunnam, design director at Jed Johnson Associates was quoted in Architectural Digest as saying, “These pieces work well in a country setting but are sophisticated enough for the city.”
