Description from the seller
Antique swiveling piano stool - Napoleon III style - Mahogany, Iron, Brass - 19th Century
Description: Elegant and refined swivel piano stool dating to the latter half of the 19th century, fully attributable to Napoleon III style.
The piece is made of precious mahogany wood and is embellished with metal border inlays along the profiles, a typical feature of French Second Empire cabinetmaking. The item has previously undergone conservative restoration work, which has preserved its stability and overall structure.
Details and Condition:
Mechanism: The iron lifting screw is original and perfectly functioning. It allows height adjustment smoothly.
Seat: Retains the original upholstery and the basic weave of the period. The surface fabric is completely worn with time, revealing the charm of the original underlying canvas.
Signs of time: There are signs of inactive woodworm, as well as small splits and abrasions on the wooden surface due to use and the age of the piece. Defects that do not compromise its solidity but attest to its authenticity.
Materials: Mahogany wood, internal iron screw, perimeter metal details.
Dimensions: Seat diameter: 41 cm. Minimum height: about 50 cm (adjustable upwards).
A piece of antique charm, perfect for collectors or as a historical furnishing accessory.
