Webberley Antiques has dated this piece to the 1700s.
Newly and professionally re-upholstered in a lovely gold, ivory and duck egg striped silk and chenille heavyweight upholstery fabric (retailed at £180 per meter) and with an antique silk bobble trim in golds and creams. The original horsehair padding has been re-used and covered with fire resistant cotton wadding as required by regulation, and the fragment of original 17th century fabric of red silk velvet with gold thread - which was largely missing/threadbare - has been retained for the purchaser.
Modern replicas of these stools sell for upwards of £1,400, yet here you can purchase the genuine item made by a skilled craftsman over 300 years ago.
An absolute delight and strongly recommended.
