About the Item

Early 20th C. birdseye maple "Thebes" stool in an Egyptian Revival style. This example has been finished with a birdseye maple seat, a rare and elevated take on more commonly seen in oak. Rooted in the Egyptian Revival movement, the silhouette draws from ancient motifs, translated with a sculptural delicacy. The turned legs are tightly grouped and rhythmically spaced, giving the piece a sense of visual lift and ceremonial presence. This is a quietly exceptional piece—humble in scale, yet rich in material and historical resonance. Perfect as a decorative accent, a footstool, or sculptural perch that bridges the line between furniture and artifact. Elegant, unexpected, and full of subtle presence. We love this piece mixed with other styles; it works especially well with English antiques and American Midcentury Modern pieces.
