A piece of Stockholm history – Sirishov at Royal Djurgården F514

Welcome to a themed auction featuring everything from drawing room pieces to everyday household items, blended with furnishings from life in a summer villa, showcasing the mixed tastes of several generations. Standing in solitary majesty, Sirishov has reflected in the waters of Djurgårdsbrunnsvikens and sparked the imagination of passers-by for centuries. A Sleeping Beauty castle, almost as synonymous with the silhouette of Djurgården as the attractions of Gröna Lund or the masts of the ship Vasa.

Sirishov has a long history, tracing back to 1687 when it was known as Kossvatorpet. At the end of the 18th century, the house, then called Matshof, was purchased by court official Sten Abraham Piper. He renamed the house Sirishov after his favourite dog, Siri. Between 1808 and 1862, Sirishov was owned by members of the royal family, first Gustav IV Adolf, followed by Karl XIV Johan and Oscar I, who bequeathed it to Queen Dowager Josefina.

In 1866, Sirishov was bought by bank director A. O. Wallenberg, who spent all his summers there. Upon his death in 1886, it was inherited by his daughter Siri Oxenstierna af Korsholm och Wasa, who was born in the house and named after the villa! Since then, Sirishov has remained within the family up to the present day.

Now that Sirishov is changing ownership, Bukowskis has been entrusted with the great honour of selling most of its furnishings. For the first time in over 160 years, there is an opportunity to glimpse into this enchanting home and a unique chance to acquire a piece of history from the magnificent Sirishov.

We invite you to explore the items and place bids on your favourites.


Consignment is now open for our upcoming live auction, Important Winter Sale, on 11–13 December.
