Antique French Provincial Louis XVI Painted Cane Bidet Stool
About the Item
A charming antique French Louis XVI style painted bidet stool (today it would make for a wonderful end table, plant stand or functional stool)
Born in Provincial France in the 19th century, having a cream painted solid wood frame with hinged rectangular cane woven seat, opening to cutout that once housed a porcelain chamberpot, rising on turned H-stretcher joined legs.
*Please note, at the time of writing this, we have a similarly styled pair of Louis XVI style painted chairs available (shown in the photo)
