Karl Johan

The Karl Johan art style is another Swedish development of the empire style.

The style has got its name from the Swedish regent Jean Baptiste Bernadotte, who took the name Karl XIV Johan when he was crowned in 1811.

The style is simpler than the empire and the chandeliers are characterized by a glass bowl or plate at the bottom.
