19th century Italian Renaissance Revival Savonarola Stool
About the Item
Anonymous
19th century; Italy
Walnut, velvet, silk embroidery
Approximate size: 24.5 (h) x 27.5 (w) x 16.5 (d) in.
This elegantly designed wooden chair features a frame crafted from walnut, inspired by earlier Renaissance period prototypes. During the 19th century, this seating style was dubbed the ‘Savonarola,’ named after the Dominican Friar, Girolamo Savonarola, whose writings and preaching experienced a renewal in interest as European and American populations approached the turn-of-the-century.
This stool features handsomely turned arms surmounted by carved grotesques. A tie-on handmade antique silk velvet embroidered seat cushion with tassels accompanies the stool. The chair is supported by a curule base with carved paw feet.
The vibrant yellow cushion adds a pop of color and eloquent style, making it an ideal addition to any living space or dining area. Its timeless design seamlessly blends with various decor styles, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your home.
Condition commensurate with age. Stable but wobbly and not recommended for utilitarian use, but rather to accent a room or space. Minor nicks, scratches, dings and chips. Some old worming present along surfaces.

19th Century Italian Renaissance Revival Curule Stool
Located in Forney, TX
A exceptionally carved Italian Renaissance Revival figural curule stool.
Born in Italy during the late 19th century, hand-crafted of warm, rich, finely carved solid walnut, finished in medieval Henry II style / Italian Empire taste, featuring X-frame with curved armrests ending in ornate stylized lion's head / griffin grotesques, having an upholstered seat cushion adorned with nail head trim, rising on foliate carving turned stretcher-joined richly detailed acanthus leaf accented legs, terminating in finely sculpted lion paw feet.
A wonderful example of functional art, the impressive antique, circa 1880, having beautifully aged patina over the whole, retaining original antique character throughout, worn smooth, naturally distressed patina that does not detract from the overall display, but only adds to the elegant rustic warmth, historical depth and European old world charm.
