I am not sure if you can make combined use of Swing and java-gnome
APIs in an application.
But if you are writing a new application and want it to have native
look and feel, functionality then surely java-gnome is the way to go.
The 4.x version has bindings for many GNOME libraries including GTK+,
cairo, pango, libunique, gtksourceview. Also the application will have
theme, look and feel same as your rest gnome applications.
Check here to see how the file chooser dialog looks in java-gnome. [1]
Hope this helps.
