19C British Telescopic Rotating Piano or Vanity Stool

About the Item

PRESENTING A LOVELY, mid-19th Century, British Victorian Telescopic or Adjustable Piano or Vanity Stool, from circa 1860. The cushioned seat turns clockwise and counter-clockwise to raise and lower its height. The stool sits on a heavily carved and sturdy walnut tripod base. The central column has a large bulbous center portion and acanthus leaf carvings throughout. REALLY CUTE little Stool! In ORIGINAL CONDITION! The mechanism for raising the stool needs tightening, but not a major restoration/repair job. The upholstery is probably the original and it is a light tan velvet, with brass buttons around the edge. Was probably made for sitting at a piano, but it also works equally well at a Ladies Vanity Unit or poudreuse. Provenance: Bought from a reputable dealer in Ireland. Dimensions: 19 in tall (unraised) …. 23 in tall (fully raised) 18 in Wide at base feet and Cushion Seat has a 13 in Diameter Condition: Very good, except the mechanism for raising the stool needs tightening, but this is not a major restoration/repair job.
