About the Item

An American horn stool from circa 1880 with custom upholstery. This circa 1880 American horn stool stands as a remarkable testament to the eclectic design trends of the period, showcasing a unique three-tiered construction of meticulously arranged horns. Each tier builds upon the other, culminating in a fascinating display of natural textures and forms, all while resting on delicately crafted petite feet. The stool is crowned with custom upholstery, providing a soft, comfortable seat that contrasts beautifully with the rugged, organic aesthetic of the horns. Perfect for adding a touch of historical intrigue and natural elegance to any interior, this stool could serve as a distinctive accent piece in a living room, study, or entryway. Its unusual design and material make it a conversation starter, while its compact size allows it to fit seamlessly into various spaces. Whether used as a functional seat or a decorative object, this horn stool bridges the gap between art and utility, making it a unique addition to both contemporary and traditional homes. Its presence in a room not only enhances the decor but also pays homage to the craftsmanship and artistic vision of the late 19th century.
