Michel Karis

Thonet “Snakeskin” Piano Stool
Crafted during the turn of the 20th century, this exquisite piece represents the design prowess of the Thonet Brothers. Fashioned from meticulously bent beechwood and adorned with a deep black stain finish that exudes timeless sophistication, this furniture exemplifies the enduring legacy of Thonet's artistry.
Notably, this piece features an innovative and adjustable height mechanism, thanks to the inclusion of a precision-engineered metal insert. This innovative addition not only showcases Thonet's commitment to both form and function but also allows for customization to suit various settings and preferences.
An intriguing aspect of this furniture is the presence of distinct markings, both a stamped emblem and an affixed sticker, thoughtfully placed within the frame's interior. These marks provide valuable insights into its provenance and heritage, adding to its historical significance.
Furthermore, this piece has undergone a meticulous restoration process, breathing new life into its classic design while preserving its authenticity. As a result, it stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of Thonet's craftsmanship.
