Satinwood Inlaid Stool (adjustable height)

Note: has a clean basis beige fabric underneath the floral. A charming Edwardian satinwood piano stool, circa 1900 to 1915, in the Sheraton Revival taste and of neat, elegant proportions. The upholstered seat is covered in a soft floral fabric in muted sage, peach and cream, and lifts to reveal a useful storage compartment for sheet music. The seat is flanked by shaped, open end rails with turned side knobs, and the frieze below is finely strung with ebony and boxwood lines and inlaid with small oval patera panels at each corner, a delicate detail that lifts it above the ordinary. The stool stands on four square tapering legs outlined with fine stringing and finishing in neat spade feet, giving it a light, upright and graceful stance. The satinwood has aged to a warm, golden honey colour with a soft, mellow patina from generations of polishing, and the frame carries the gentle marks and honest wear you would expect of a piece that has been used and enjoyed for over a century. Made for the drawing room piano, it remains perfectly suited to that purpose, but is equally useful at a desk or dressing table, at the end of a bed, or as an extra seat in a hallway or sitting room. Light, refined and full of period charm, a most appealing stool in good original condition.
