This Art Deco stool dates from 1930 and is designed by Harry and Lou Epstein. The piece has a warm brown burr walnut veneer with swept curved legs and rolled seat ends, complemented by soft cream leather upholstery. The wood displays a rich, figured grain pattern across the curved frame and scroll-like ends, while the upholstered seat cushion features a smooth finish with visible piping along the edges. It measures 48 cm high, 70 cm wide and 42 cm deep. In a contemporary home, this stool functions well placed at the foot of the bed or as an accent seating option in a dressing room or living space. Its compact proportions allow it to fit easily into smaller areas while providing a distinctive geometric profile characteristic of the period.

FAQs

British Art Deco furniture of the 1930s is characterised by bold geometric forms, sweeping curves, and the extensive use of figured timber veneers such as burr walnut, cloud maple, and macassar ebony. Designers favoured clean, streamlined silhouettes that highlighted the natural grain patterns of the wood.

High-end pieces typically utilised solid hardwood frames overlaid with premium figured veneers, such as walnut or mahogany. Upholstery frequently featured natural leather, velvet, or woven fabrics trimmed with brass piping or studding.

Authentic Epstein pieces are distinguished by their heavy, sculptural proportions, sweeping cloud or bow shapes, and high-quality burr walnut veneers. While many pieces were unsigned, the construction quality, thick cut veneers, and distinct curvilinear silhouettes serve as key identification markers.

An Art Deco walnut stool functions effectively as a footrest at the end of a bed, an accent seat in a dressing room, or a sculptural occasional seat in a living room. Pairing warm timber veneers with neutral, contemporary textiles helps balance historical design with modern aesthetics.

Burr walnut veneer should be kept away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent fading and drying, and cleaned using a high-grade beeswax polish. Leather upholstery requires occasional conditioning with a neutral leather balm to maintain flexibility and prevent cracking.
