An Unusual Pair of “Jacobethan” Carved Stools
Carved from rosewood, the stools on incurved platform bases dressed with carved pearls and supported on ball & claw feet fitted with hidden castors, the platforms centred with a turned finial, S-scrolled legs issuing from the corners supporting the seats within its egg-and-dart moulding, with scrolling carved ornaments to all sides.
English, circa 1835
The “Jacobethan” style, a term coined by John Betjemann, was a decorative arts trend starting in the 1820s which combined various design sources from Jacobean, Elizabethan and Stuart periods to inform contemporary 19th century furniture. It continued to flourish throughout the 1830s and 1840s, as particularly evident in some Gothic-inspired furniture by Pugin for the Palace of Westminster.
