About

This elegant mid-century French stool was crafted circa 1970 in the Louis XIII style and reflects a faithful revival of early French classical forms. Constructed of solid beechwood, the piece features finely turned legs joined by robust stretchers with square knuckle blocks, all resting on small bun feet. The warm, medium-brown patina highlights the grain of the wood and gives the stool a sense of age and presence reminiscent of an antique original. The generously proportioned rectangular seat is upholstered in a traditional tapestry-style textile depicting a lush pastoral landscape with trees, foliage, and distant architectural elements, finished with decorative nailhead trim along the apron. The upholstery adds softness and visual interest while remaining stylistically appropriate to the Louis XIII aesthetic. The stool is sturdy, well-balanced, and in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, making it both decorative and functional. Versatile in use, this French stool can serve as a vanity seat, occasional stool, footstool, or accent piece at the end of a bed, in a dressing room, or alongside a pair of armchairs, bringing classic French character to both traditional and transitional interiors. Dimensions: 19.5″ W x 18″ D x 20″ H
