About the Item
More portable than heavy chairs, stools have been a favored form of seating in Chinese culture for centuries and were used indoors and out at mealtimes and during social gatherings. These square stools (fang deng) from Shanxi province date to the mid-19th century and are crafted of lacquered walnut with balanced proportions and traditional joinery.
The seat frames and stretchers are expertly designed with ribbed carvings and rounded corners, meant to imitate the strips of bamboo or willow used in early Chinese bentwood furniture. As though woven by hand, the stacked aprons and humpback stretchers appear to wrap gracefully around each of the round corner legs, a charming detail that keeps the wooden tables feeling light and open. The original lacquer finishes have faded with time and developed a soft patina that calls to be touched.
