About the Item
A highly collectable, Circa 1800’s Parisian Napoleon III, Aesthetic Movement Stool. Oriental influenced with carved (faux) bamboo legs, and a centered English influenced turned finial with cross-stretchers in giltwood; with soft, terracotta-colored suede upholstery trimmed with Spanish-style brass nail heads.
This piece is particularly special because it was originally placed by legendary interior designer Michael S. Smith in famous actor Jim Belushi’s Brentwood, California estate. Smith is one of the most esteemed talents in the design industry today, known for blending European classicism and American modernism. His work is layered and tailored with California, casual refinement. His A-List clients include the White House for America’s 1st black President and First Lady, Barack & Michelle Obama; other politically historical figures and Hollywood heavyweights - Steven Spielberg, Cindy Crawford, Dustin Hoffman, George Clooney, Harrison Ford, and Rupert Murdoch. Early on, he apprenticed under legendary antiques dealer Gep Durenberger and iconic designer John Saladino, prior to opening interior design firm, Michael S. Smith Inc, and creating Jasper – a line of furniture & fabrics (sold exclusively to the trade.) As a Curator and Interior Designer, these are the storied pieces I seek – knowing it will transcend time, always in style, never trendy. A treasured find for collectors and enthusiasts of one-of-a-kind pieces. If you enjoy a story with great provenance, this is for you!
We know, it’s hard to find, one-of-a-kind pieces! Shop our listings for new inventory, curated from an Interior Architect and Designer’s POV. THE TASTEMAKER SHOPPE offers an exclusive mix of ‘new & old’ furnishings, founded solely on good taste, not limited by any style or era.
