Description:
Here is a fine quality antique French Louis XVI style beech painted duet stool, circa 1930, which has been newly upholstered, and is now in excellent condition. The stool features a taupe colour distressed paint finish. The signs of use and wear to the paint finish lend the item a shabby-chic distressed aesthetic. It has been newly upholstered in top quality taupe colour structured cotton material. The stool features a removable swab cushion, which creates a firm seat; this means that you won’t sink into the seat, but at the same time, it is very comfortable to sit on. The swab cushion incorporates a zip on the back; therefore, the cushion can be removed for cleaning. Beneath the cushion, the stool has been finished with two caned panels. The stool boasts profuse foliate carvings to the entire frame. The stool features turned arms raised on turned supports, attached to the seat frame. The seat frame boasts a spiral carved frieze. The stool stands on six fine turned & carved reeded tapering legs, topped with pretty floral carved cartouches.
This item would look superb in a variety of rooms from the bedroom to living room. This item would certainly grace any home and is a great investment as it is extremely functional. So, don’t miss out on your chance to own a lovely piece of furniture.

Once you have purchased an item, we will contact you by email and/or telephone and provide you with a provisional delivery date, in order for you to confirm if it is suitable for you. Once you have confirmed you can accept delivery on the provisional delivery date, we will book the delivery in with our shippers and it then becomes a confirmed delivery date.
We will also provide you with our shippers’ contact details, in case you need to contact the driver on the day of delivery. It’s helpful if you can provide us with both the landline and mobile telephone number, in case the driver cannot reach you on one of the numbers on the day of delivery, they can contact you on your alternative number.
