Elegant and sculptural, this antique Thonet piano stool dates to the late 19th century and showcases the refined bentwood craftsmanship that made Thonet a household name in European design. Crafted from steam-bent beech with a woven cane seat, it features a cast iron height-adjustment mechanism that remains functional. The looping silhouette and delicate proportions reflect the Art Nouveau sensibility of the period. Ideal as a decorative accent, occasional seat, or styling prop, it’s a rare survivor with timeless appeal.
