A superb and charming Charles II walnut Solomonic twist stool dating from the last quarter of the 17th century.
Raised on the original solid walnut bun feet, the four finely carved barley or Solomonic twist legs are each joined by twisting periphery stretchers of the same form.
The stool is covered in a beautiful 17th century tapestry fragment depicting a hunting horn, rope and foliage.
It should be noted that very few examples in walnut have survived from the Baroque period. This model is very sophisticated in its form and is in original condition.
