Swedish Arts & Crafts

Just finished a model of an interesting chair that I spotted on the 1stdibs.com auction site. The original pair, shown in the photo, were made of oak with ebonized ball feet and wool upholstery. They date from the first decade of the 20th century. Nothing fancy here. This actually feels like a piece I could build for real. Maybe I'll double its width, scrap the upholstered seat in favor of slats, and make this into an outdoor bench.
Let me know what you think.
Best,
