A striking pair of antique late 19th century english ebonized stools with twisted legs - also known as bobbin-turned or spool-turned stools - defined by their sculptural base, elegant proportions and deep burgundy red upholster.
the legs feature richly turned forms with intricate spiraling details reminiscent of barley twist legs, adding movement and refinement. These are connected by an x-form cross stretcher, centred by a turned finial that acts as a decorative focal point and reinforces the stool’s balanced, architectural structure.
the seats are upholstered in burgundy leather with brass stud detailing (nailhead trim), creating a refined contrast with the dark wood.
each stool is further distinguished by a small numbered plaque set within an ornate bronze cartouche—one marked “11” and the other “13”, cast in relief. This rare detail suggests an original use in a more formal or curated environment, such as a salon or reception space, where seating elements were numbered—adding both character and a subtle historical narrative to the pieces.
highly versatile, this pair can be used as footstools, footrests, vanity stools or accent seating. Ideal in a living room, bedroom, or dressing area, they serve as both functional pieces and decorative accents. Their distinctive design and bold upholstery make them a stylish addition to both classic and contemporary interiors.
