Pair of refined solid walnut wood stools, made in Piedmont, during the Charles X period (second and third decades of the 19th century). Measurements: Price: by private negotiation Item accompanied by our certificate of authenticity The structure, slender but solid, features elegant curved side uprights terminating in scrolls and connected to each other, serving as armrests. The curved line, in turn, connects to the seat, defined by a fluted and curvilinear band decorated at the ends with circular elements and, towards the interior, in a fan shape. The four turned legs are set on this, connected by shaped stretchers decorated in the center, on the long sides, with carved oval reserve motifs. The seats are upholstered and covered with silk fabric, embellished with a rich pattern of small polychrome velvet ornamental motifs in shades of green and red. The stools are very decorative and versatile: perfect at the foot of a bed, in an entryway or hallway, as complementary seating next to a console table or fireplace, but also inserted into contemporary environments, where they add a presence of historical elegance.
Period: First half of the 19th century
