Handmade in the United States during the Victorian era, this Chippendale-style stool features a padded seat with a floral tapestry featuring mauve-colored roses and contrasting daisies. Measuring 21 inches in height and 17 inches in seat depth, this lightweight stool/bench makes it a comfortable and stylish addition to any room and is perfect for adults looking to add a unique and elegant old-fashioned touch to their indoor decor.

The wood appears to be walnut, consistent with the Chippendale style also known for its intricate carvings and cabriole legs. The legs of this stool are turned and have a decorative, carved shape. They are made of a hardwood and are connected by a stretcher, which is a horizontal bar between the legs. The cabriole legs feature two curves, a convex upper curve and a concave lower curve and the back of the stool is a low, horizontal rail with a turned or carved design often associated with Regency and Chippendale furniture.

This piece is amazingly simple, portable and versatile yet...detailed, stylish and, well, timeless.
