A rare pair of George II mahogany stools of superb colour and patina, the bold cabriole legs and earpieces carved with acanthus leaves and scrolls terminating in claw and ball feet, covered in a crimson silk damask.

These stools are of pure and classic design. Made from the highest quality timber and standing on bold acanthus-carved cabriole legs terminating in crisply formed claw and ball feet, they bear all the features of the mid eighteenth-century design circa 1740-50 and the early Chippendale school. Hipped at the knees and of large size, the stools stand well and with great presence.

This pair are in wonderful, untouched condition and retain a rich, deep colour and patina. The quality of both the mahogany and carving suggests one of the leading London cabinet-makers of the time.
