About the Item

An Empire piano stool made in Boston around 1830, its octagonal seat set on a fluted, tapering rosewood pedestal. The column narrows into a trefoil platform base on turned, suppressed bun feet, a three-point stance built for function over ornament. The seat height matches a keyboard, not a vanity or a writing desk. Purpose is baked into the proportions. Constructed in rosewood and rosewood veneers over an eastern white pine secondary wood, with the seat padded in horse hair beneath a dark, narrow-striped woven upholstered seat. DIMENSIONS: 13-3/4" W x 19" H
