It’s the kind of accent piece that looks collected and intentional—decorative enough to stand alone, yet practical for everyday use.

The form draws from Empire and Regency-inspired design, with dramatic volute-shaped side supports that give the piece its architectural presence. The warm, rich finish reads as mahogany or mahogany-toned wood, with a smooth sheen that complements the traditional profile.

The upholstered top has been recovered at some point in a striped fabric and finished with decorative trim, offering a comfortable surface and a tailored look. The contrast between the soft seat and the substantial carved base is what makes this piece feel special.

A lower plinth base adds visual weight and stability, while small turned feet lift the piece slightly for a refined finish. It works beautifully as a footstool, vanity stool, or low accent seat in a bedroom, dressing area, or living room.

Condition is very good vintage overall, with light wear consistent with age and use. Exact wood species and original upholstery details are unknown, but the craftsmanship and style are unmistakably classic.
