Two walnut stools, Tuscany, early 18th century Dimensions: left: cm D 43 x W 27.5 x H 107; seat height cm 55 Right: cm D 44 x W 27 x H 101.5; seat height cm 50.5 Price: private negotiation Item accompanied by our certificate of authenticity These two stools, very similar to each other in design and craftsmanship, were made in the Tuscan area around the early 18th century. The walnut wood structure, with its slender and decorative profile, makes them ideal furnishing elements for both historical settings and contemporary interiors. The form recalls Renaissance models: the seat, set on a tapered base, rests on shaped legs with volutes, following a curvilinear profile that gives the ensemble a lively and dynamic silhouette. The molded edge of the seat further emphasizes the play of lines. The narrow, upward-reaching backrests feature a similarly curvilinear profile characterized by opposing volutes; in one of them, a stylized shield motif appears in the center, introducing a note of refined decoration. Due to their balanced proportions, the rhythmic movement of the backrests, and the quality of the carving, this pair of stools is perfectly suited as service seating in an entryway or next to a console, but also as a striking presence flanking a fireplace or along a wall. Their sober yet strongly expressive character converses naturally with both antique furnishings and, by contrast, with minimalist and modern spaces.

Period: Early 18th century
