Description:

This is a fine quality antique English Victorian box stool, constructed from flame mahogany, with a newly upholstered hinged brown leather seat, incorporating an internal storage area, circa 1850, in good condition.  It started life out as a commode, but has been converted into a stool.  The Victorian box stool comprises a mahogany serpentine shaped box frame, with a newly upholstered brown leather hinged seat, finished with brass studwork, encompassed by a mahogany moulding and brass inset carrying handles.  The seat itself is firm, which means that you won’t sink into the upholstery, but at the same time, it is very comfortable to sit on.  If you do not like the colour/style of the upholstery, we can re-cover the seat in a fabric of your choice for £35 labour.  The hinged lid opens to reveal a storage area, which has been lined with pale grey velvet; the lid has been decorated with lattice ribbon-work and finished with decorative brass studs.  The internal box would be ideal for storing magazines, TV remote controls, make-up or just as a general tidy box!  The front of the Victorian box stool is decorated with a serpentine shaped flame mahogany front.  The Victorian mahogany stool is raised on its original baluster turned four legs.

This Victorian box stool boasts a rich brown mahogany finish.  It has a fantastic colour and patination; this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning it has received.  This Victorian box stool would look superb in a variety of rooms from the bedroom to living room. This item would certainly grace any home and is a great investment as it is extremely functional.  So, don’t miss out on your chance to own a lovely piece of furniture.
