ANTIQUE #SA1200954

Thebes Stool In The Manner Of Liberty & Co

£300    $406    €353
An attractive Aesthetic Movement Thebes style stool, comprising four ring turned legs with the characteristic dished seat. The double stretchers are each connected to the seat by six decorative struts.
 
Our example is of very good quality and generous proportions, in dark stained birch, and owes much in design to Godwin and to Liberty''s Thebes Chair of circa 1880 (also pictured), but with double rather than single stretchers and a different arrangement of struts that includes crossed diagonals that we have not seen previously. There is a partial label, but insufficient to identify the origins of the piece any more accurately than in the manner of Liberty & Co, probably by William Birch.
 
Newly reupholstered in Mulberry Lee Jofa Berber Stripe woven jute fabric with stud detailing.
 
English, circa 1885.
