Pair of Early 20th Century English Thebes Stools
About the Item
A handsome pair of early 20th-century English Thebes stools, embodying the timeless elegance of Egyptian-inspired design. These stools feature classic Thebes styling—upturned corners, gracefully turned legs, and simple yet sturdy crossbars—topped with woven cotton seats that add texture and comfort. The Thebes stool traces its origins to ancient Egypt, where similar low, curving stools were crafted for both royalty and commoners alike. Their distinctive silhouette and practical design made them a natural choice for revival in the 19th and early 20th centuries, particularly as Egyptian motifs surged in popularity following the 1922 discovery of King Tutankhamun’s tomb. Designers and tastemakers embraced these influences, bringing Thebes stools into stylish European and American interiors. With their elegant yet utilitarian form, these stools remain as versatile as ever—perfect as a pair of accent seats, tucked beneath a console, or flanking a fireplace, adding both history and sophistication to any space.
