Know before you buy
The stool retains its original wood finish from the 1950s. It features authentic age markings and a natural patina that reflect its history rather than a modern restoration.
The stool is structurally sound and features four sturdy, ribbed legs. While it is stable for standard use, please keep in mind that it is a vintage piece and should be treated with the care appropriate for its age.
Yes, its compact size and circular seat make it an excellent choice for a side table. It works particularly well placed next to an armchair or sofa for holding a book or a small lamp.
The stool measures 18 inches in height and has a diameter of 11.5 inches. Its compact footprint makes it easy to tuck into smaller corners or tight living spaces.
To preserve the original patina, we recommend dusting with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or polishes, as these can strip the vintage finish and alter the character of the wood.
