A very good looking collectable and rare stool, I have never seen one this large before, depending on your seating arrangement this could accommodate eight pairs of feet with ease

The stool has ornately carved Lion’s hairy paw feet, the design dates back the early 18th century and is quintessentially English, for any fine furniture connoisseur this piece screams style charm and elegance

As mentioned this piece is fully restored, it has been stripped down to the frame and totally rebuilt, the upholstery is fully aniline Italian cattle hide leather, this was newly upholstered, fully aniline leather is plain which is significantly more expensive that pretreated leather, the hide was then hand dyed six times, antiqued, sealed waxed down and polished, all the upholstery is held in place with a double row and hand tacked brass studs, this is quite literally the finest quality hearth stool available for sale anywhere in the world today

It can also be used as a coffee table, the standard practice is to decorative it with large books which act as stands for coffee tea and wine, or nice glass and chrome serving trays which really set off the hand dyed brown colour
