More information

Nils Petter Stenström föddes i Malmö 1750. Efter läroår hos J. Chr. Naumann flyttade han till Stockholm och var under åren 1772-1773 gesäll hos Georg Haupt. Fyra år senare ansökte Stenström om att få avlägga mästarprov, men fick avslag då ämbetet inte gillade hans önskan om att få göra provet i form av ett litet bord. 1781 blev han utnämnd till hovsnickare för att året därpå utföra sitt mästerstycke i form av ett skrivskåp som idag är i Nordiska museets samling. Trots att Stenström var sparsam med sin signatur är hans möbler omisskänneliga med de för honom karakteristiska pärl- och romborneringarna, draperihängena, urnorna, samt trofégrupperna i form av musikinstrument eller pilkoger och pilbågar. Trots sina år hos Georg Haupt utvecklade han ett mycket eget och vackert stiluttryck.
