A pair of early 20th-century utility stools, each measuring 18 inches in height. The frames are constructed from stained beech? or a similar hardwood, finished in a dark mahogany tone. Each stool features square-section legs supported by a four-sided H-stretcher, indicating a robust mortise and tenon construction suitable for domestic use. The square seats are upholstered in a dark brown grained rexine? or faux-leather material, which is secured to the frame with a series of decorative brass-toned upholstery tacks around the perimeter. The stools exhibit a simple, functional design typical of the period. No manufacturer’s marks or labels are visible on the exterior surfaces of the frames or the underside of the seats.
Height: 18″.
