About the Item

A French Midcentury whitewash curule stool with foliage carved X-Form base and custom upholstery. This exquisite French Midcentury curule stool captivates with its elegant whitewashed finish and timeless X-form base. The rectangular seat, newly upholstered in a linen fabric, provides a fresh, neutral palette that seamlessly integrates into any decor. The stool’s standout feature is its beautifully carved base, showcasing delicate foliage and rosette motifs in low relief that add a touch of natural elegance to the piece. The X-form design, a nod to classical antiquity, is both stylish and structurally sound, offering a visually pleasing interplay of curves and lines. Two low spindle-shaped stretchers connect two of the sides, enhancing the stool’s stability while contributing to its charming appearance. The whitewashed finish subtly highlights the intricacies of the carving, lending a soft, aged patina that exudes rustic sophistication. This versatile stool would be perfect in a living room, placed beside a sofa as a handy extra seat or footrest. It could also add a touch of French flair to a bedroom, hallway, or entryway, serving as a chic accent or a place to sit while putting on shoes. Its delicate details and timeless style make it a perfect fit for both contemporary and traditional interiors, where it will effortlessly bring a touch of elegance and refinement.
